There’s something undeniably magical about sailing through the Cyclades. The sea sparkles. The boat glides from bay to remote beach, and the breeze carries the scent of salt, freedom, and possibility.
But there’s one thing we do differently than most other sailing tours: We don’t serve lunch on board.
Wait… what?
That’s right. While many yacht tours in Naxos include a fixed lunch stop, usually with a set menu already included in the ticket price, we leave that part completely up to you.
And that’s one of the smartest things we could do for your experience. Here’s why.
Because You Deserve Real Choice, Not a Fixed Plate
Most sailing tour companies include lunch—sounds convenient, right?
But here’s the catch· they’ve already chosen the tavern and the menu for you. The lunch is usually pre-arranged, with a limited set of dishes available for everyone on the tour.
You might not be that hungry.
You might want something different.
You might want more. Or less.
We believe that freedom of choice makes your island tour more enjoyable.
Instead of offering a fixed meal, we drop anchor near authentic taverns – usually on a beach or close to a picturesque remote bay – and let you choose what (and how much) you want to eat. You’re free to skip lunch, grab a light snack, or go all in with a seafood feast.
You order. You enjoy. You pay only for what you eat.
Simple. Fair. Refreshing.
Because Tavern Food Is Part of the Island Experience
Greece isn’t just famous for its beaches, history, and sailing· it’s a food paradise. And a big part of discovering the real Cyclades is stepping off the boat and into a local tavern by the sea, where the octopus might still be drying on a line and the smell of grilled fish fills the air. You’ll sit at a table just steps from the water, listening to the gentle splash of waves on the shore.
Here, you can order:
Fresh fish, caught that morning
Crispy fried calamari, still sizzling
Local meat cooked it the oven with herbs and potatoes
A colorful, juicy Greek salad, bursting with tomatoes and olive oil
Local cheeses, bread, olives—and a cold beer or glass of wine to go with it
And so much more!
No plastic trays. No soggy sandwiches. No eating while the boat rocks.
Just real food, real flavor, real Greece.
Because Some Guests Want to Eat… and Others Just Want to Swim
We welcome all kinds of travelers.
Some people love to dive into every dish they find.
Others just want to dive into the sea.
Some come for the party, some for the peace.
You might be celebrating a bachelor event or anniversary. Or maybe you’re part of a group of friends, or one adventurous traveler exploring the Aegean.
No matter who you are, your hunger level and schedule won’t always match someone else’s.
By skipping lunch on board, we make room for everyone to enjoy the day on their own terms.
Some guests prefer to eat lightly and spend more time swimming, sunbathing, or taking photos and videos in the remote bays we visit.
Others may want a full, traditional Greek lunch· and they’ll love getting to pick exactly what and how much to order.
Because It’s Actually More Affordable This Way
Here’s a secret: when other companies say lunch is “included,” what they really mean is:
You already paid for it, whether you wanted it or not.
Often, this lunch is mass-produced, kept cheap to control costs, and factored into your ticket whether you eat it or not.
We don’t do that.
By not adding a set meal to the price of your sailing tour, we help you:
Lower the cost of your booking
Stay within your budget
Pay only for what you really want
Want a quick salad and a drink? That’s cheap.
Want to treat yourself to grilled fish and ouzo? Go for it—it’s your choice, and still more economic than the flat-rate lunches offered elsewhere.
Because Lunch Should Be a Highlight, Not an Obligation
You’re sailing the Aegean Sea, discovering one remote beach after another, living the dream.
Why interrupt that magic with a scheduled, fixed lunch you didn’t choose?
We prefer to give you the freedom to make lunch part of the adventure.
And if you’re not hungry? Skip it.
Want to stop for a proper sit-down meal in a quiet fishing village? We know the perfect tavern.
Want to eat quickly and get back on the water for water sports, snorkeling, or exploring a sea cave?
No problem.
This isn’t just about food. It’s about flexibility, comfort, and control.
What We Do Offer On Board
Of course, you won’t go hungry while sailing.
We provide:
Light snacks
Refreshing drinks
Fresh fruit
Chilled water
And of course, memories that last for a lifetime!
You’ll be well taken care of as we cruise between bays, beaches, and secret corners of the Cyclades.
We focus on the weather, the forecast, the sea conditions—adjusting the route so you always get the best stops. And once we anchor near land, you’re free to make your own food choices.
So Why Do We Skip Onboard Lunch?
Because you’re not a tourist on a conveyor belt.
You’re a traveler, an explorer, a guest.
And the best way to discover Greece is to do what locals do: eat in a tavern, by the water, with a cold drink in hand and your toes in the sand.
Your ticket includes what you need: a safe, beautiful, well-organized sailing tour, experienced crew, handpicked stops, and an unforgettable atmosphere.
The lunch part? That’s between you, your taste buds, and the tavern of your choice.
If you’re looking for a sailing tour that’s flexible, authentic, and personal…
Where you can swim, laugh, dance, explore remote bays, and party if you want to…
Where lunch isn’t served to you in a box, but chosen by you at a seaside table…
Then we’d love to welcome you aboard!
Book your spot today, and let’s make waves—on your terms.
