To avoid! After a one hour journey , the boat stopped 200m from the island, and the crew told us to jump and swim !!!!! No one had told us that the island was closed and only accessible by swimming (a long swim with deep water for half of it - see the picture). You are not able to bring anything on the island (towels/phone) as it would be dumped, and you need to be a good swimmer. It ruined our entire experience, and the one of other passenger on the boat, furious as well. Despite talking over the phone, on WhatsApp or by email, nowhere was it mentionned that we needed to swim. We spent 140€ (4x35€) for not even being able to enjoy the beach. Too bad cause it is a wonderful island : the cruise company just was not truthful. Do not recommend.

I'm not sure how anybody can give this anything less than 5 stars.
Yes there is nothing there other than a few huts to get some food and refreshments from, but what did you expect from an island of paradise.
Beautiful sun the most beautiful coloured water you've ever seen stunning beaches.
Just remember some sun cream and lots of water and other things you might need
You WILL NOT regret visiting Chrissi island

Island which resembles Corsica but more desert. Pretty villages, beautiful landscapes and excellent road infrastructure. The typical restaurants are very good and inexpensive. Mild weather with 28° in September and the water at 25°. Beautiful beaches and everything to relax

We enjoyed the view throughout the cruise. In addition, we were able to enjoy the beach with shells and white sand for 3 hours. But also dives where we admired aquatic species.
The only drawback of the cruise was that we were not informed in advance that the boats could no longer dock at the beach. We therefore had to buy a waterproof bag on board the boat in order to swim the tens of meters from the boat to the beach.
However, this experience was wonderful for us, we highly recommend this cruise.

Hello,
I'm interested in the trip for two people. Can you please provide more information about the trip?
- is it by a motor boat or a yacht?
- is there a place to have lunch? Or should we take something to eat with us?
Thanks in advance
