Alkion II Glass Bottom Boat - Cruises to famous Blue Lagoon and Akamas, Polis Chrysochous, Latchi -Paphos- ΚΡΟΥΑΖΙΕΡΕΣ - ΛΑΤΣΙ , ΠΟΛΗ ΧΡΥΣΟΧΟΥΣ

Cruises

Unforgettable Mini Cruise to Akamas and Blue Lagoon Bay, a day to remember and cherish forever.

Every morning from the late days of March until the 31st October the Alkion departs from Latchi harbour, which is approximately 35 minutes drive time away from Paphos and Coral Bay areas. The Latchi harbour area is possibly the most undeveloped tourist area in Cyprus with its amazing unspoilt Akamas coastline that borders on the Akamas National Park.

Departure times for the Alkion ll are as follows
-10.30 to 13.30
-14.00 to 17.00

- June ,July and August also the sunset cruise:
17.00 to 20.00

The Sunset cruise for those that like it cooler is very popular during these hot months.
Pre-booking highly recommended.
On departure, Captain Mike will give a short health and safety brief, along with an introduction to our boat facilities, helping to make you and your family feel safe and comfortable for the trip.

Once leaving the harbour there will be approximately one hour cruising along the majestic coastline of the Akamas National Park, with unspoilt views of the magnificent pine forest up on the mountainside, a perfect time to take some photos. As we cruise along you will hear a professionally guided tour in English and Greek of key points of interest along the way.

For example:

1) The baths of Aphrodite
Where in mythology the goddess of eternal youth, love and beauty used to bathe
2) St George church
High up on the mountainside
3) The island of St George
The boat travels around this small island (Glass bottom viewing highly recommend)
4) Blaji bay
That was once used to extract the rock for the use in buildings
5) Manolis bay
Was named after a local fisherman from the area
6) Chamili bay
This bay in recent years has become more famously known as BLUE LAGOON which is our 1 HOUR stop.

Here you can swim or snorkel.

Once the captain and his crew have anchored they will also prepare for you FREE wine, juice and fresh fruits of the season, which is included in the price of the trip.

After our swim stop, we head back toward the beautiful harbour of Latchi where there are many restaurants to choose from should you wish to stay longer in the area to relax and enjoy a lovely meal or a cold drink overlooking the harbour.Please remember that all our trips are approximately 3 hours long and many people do not realise how hot the sun can be reflecting off the water, the limestone and sandstone rock face along the beach, this makes it a very hot hour swimming !! We recommend to bring a hat of some type, sunscreen and drink plenty of water to keep hydrated.
