Perched on the shore of Thermaikos Bay, Thessaloniki offers several day cruises to stunning locations on nearby islands. The monastery-dotted peninsula of Mount Athos is one of the most popular destinations for full-day cruises from Thessaloniki. These trips usually include bonus commentary on the history and heritage of the local communities and onboard folklore shows along with meals. Another must-experience trip is a private cruise to Shipwreck Bay and Navagio Beach on the coast of Zakynthos Island on the Ionian Sea.
You will find the skeletal remains of the Scottish ship Panagiotis on the white sands of the coastline, from which the bay derives its name. If you are not in a time crunch during your vacation to Greece, you can also cherish a pleasant cruise ride from Thessaloniki to the blue lagoons of Halkidiki. Here you will get to explore remote, uncrowded beaches, hidden alcoves, and traditional villages that rarely see any tourist footfall. Book your package accordingly if you want an augmented experience inclusive of swimming, snorkelling, scuba diving, and other water sports activities.
