Private Golden Sunset Sailing Experience – Naxos Port to the Temple of Apollo
Escape the ordinary and discover Naxos from the sea at the most magical time of the day.
Golden skies, tranquil waters, and the iconic Temple of Apollo — all come together for an unforgettable sunset experience.
This is not just a boat ride.
This is your private evening in the Cyclades.
Your Sunset Cruise
Departure – 18:00 | Naxos Port
Step aboard ANNABELLA, find your perfect spot on the sun deck, and let the gentle Aegean breeze carry you away.
We raise the sails just outside the harbor and begin a relaxed cruise along the coast, enjoying the freedom and serenity of the open water.
Keep an eye out for dolphins, sea birds, or even flying fish that might join us along the way.
Temple of Apollo – The Perfect Sunset
Our route brings us to the iconic Temple of Apollo (Portara), where we drop anchor in the calm waters beneath this legendary landmark.
Authentic Naxian Tasting Experience
As the sun slowly sets behind the Temple of Apollo, we invite you to enjoy an authentic tasting platter featuring the very best of Naxos.
- Traditional Naxian Graviera cheese
- Handmade local Naxian salami
- Locally grown olives
- Fresh seasonal cherry tomatoes and cucumber from Naxian farms
- Wild mountain oregano, hand-picked from the hills of Naxos
- Natural sea salt, carefully collected from the coastal rocks of the Aegean
- Extra virgin olive oil produced from Naxian olive groves
- Handmade breadsticks baked in a traditional wood-fired oven using locally milled Naxian flour
Every ingredient is fresh, seasonal, locally produced, naturally grown, and free from chemicals, offering you a genuine taste of our island’s rich culinary heritage.
To accompany your tasting platter, we proudly serve organic local Naxian wine produced by a family winery on the island, allowing you to experience the authentic flavors and traditions of Naxos with every sip. We also offer traditional Naxian raki, bottled water, and soft drinks, followed by fresh seasonal fruits while you enjoy one of the most breathtaking sunsets in the Cyclades.
It’s a moment of pure magic — perfect for photos, quiet reflection, or simply soaking in the colors of the sky.
Return – 21:00 | Naxos Port
As the evening sets in, we sail back to Naxos Port.
Departure and return times may vary depending on the season and exact sunset time, ensuring you enjoy nature’s spectacle at its very best.
Complimentary Professional Photos
To make your evening even more memorable, we will capture beautiful photographs of your experience throughout the cruise.
Relax, enjoy every moment, and leave the photography to us. After your trip, we’ll send your photos to you free of charge, so you can relive your unforgettable sunset sailing experience and share it with family and friends.

NEW TRAVEL POLICY
We need to inform you that from 2018, the Greek government has implemented new rules on all sailing tours. All guests must carry their Passports or ID Cards with them on board. If not, they will not be allowed to sail. Before boarding we check the passport number or ID card of everybody.
So, we must inform all guests that they have to carry their Passports or ID Cards with them on board. If not, they will not be allowed to sail.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please note that smooth sailing is dependent on the weather, so itinerary changes may occur at the last minute if the weather becomes unfavorable. If any changes are made, you can trust in your knowledgeable skipper to choose an alternative route or activity, and the wishes of most of the passengers.
What is a private cruise
A private sailing tour means that the entire sailing boat Annabella is reserved exclusively for you and your group. There are no other guests on board — just your chosen company, the skipper, and the sea.
The price applies to the whole tour, not per person. Whether you are one person seeking a quiet escape or a group of up to 10 guests, the boat is yours alone for the duration of the experience. This allows complete privacy, flexibility, and a personalised pace, with the freedom to enjoy sailing, swimming, and exploring the Cyclades exactly the way you want.
It is sailing on your terms — relaxed, private, and truly unforgettable.
