Sail into the golden hour on a traditional sail in Greece

As the sun begins to dip toward the horizon,Spiliada sets sail into the shimmering waters of the Aegean. Our Sunset Cruise Skiathos is an experience of pure enchantment.

The light turns soft and golden, the air carries the scent of salt and summer, and the sea glows as if kissed by fire. On board our traditional wooden schooner, time slows, the world fades, and beauty takes over.

This romantic cruise is for dreamers, lovers, and families who want to feel connected — to nature, to one another, and to the soul of Greece.

You may be celebrating love, friendship, or simply life itself, the sunset cruise offers a rare chance to live a truly unforgettable moment on the water.

Celebrate love and togetherness

Sailing into the golden sea is indescribably romantic. As the sails catch the evening breeze and the light ripples across the deck, everything feels effortless. Couples hold hands and share quiet smiles; families laugh together and take photos as the sun melts into the horizon. Children watch in awe as the sky changes colors, while adults savor the serenity of being surrounded by sea and sky.

This is your time — an evening made for connection. Whether you want to sail with your partner, your family, or a close circle of friends, Spiliada offers an intimate, welcoming atmosphere that feels entirely your own. The Aegean has always been a sea for lovers and explorers; here, under the colors of the setting sun, it becomes your sanctuary.


Cocktails and conversation

The evening begins with a welcome drink — a glass of chilled wine, a refreshing cocktail, or a sip of tsipouro, the spirit of the Greek islands. Find your favorite spot on deck: stretched across a soft sunbed, seated at the open-air dining area, or simply barefoot on the polished teak wood. As the music plays softly in the background, you can dance, daydream, and lose yourself in the rhythm of the sea.

You deserve this moment. Especially this summer, when life feels faster than ever, take the time to breathe, laugh, and simply exist in the present. Our Sunset Cruise Skiathos is your invitation to pause — to feel alive, to let go, and to embrace the magic of now

Pop the question on a romantic cruise

If there were ever a perfect moment to say I love you, this is it. Imagine you and your significant other standing on deck, surrounded by the stillness of the sea, as the sun sets in a blaze of gold and rose. The gentle rocking of the boat, the whisper of the breeze, and the distant call of the gulls — every element aligns to create a moment that feels destined.

Our team can help you plan your romantic proposal during the sunset cruise — from a private dinner setting and a bouquet of flowers to chilled champagne waiting at sunset. Spiliada offers the ideal setting for two hearts to meet under the sinking sun.

Romantic dinner on deck

As twilight deepens, dinner is served. Our on-board dining experience is a celebration of Greek flavors and local ingredients. Using fresh produce from island markets and regional wines from the mainland, our crew prepares each meal with care and authenticity. Enjoy fresh salads drizzled with olive oil, grilled vegetables, local cheeses, and traditional meze, followed by tender seafood or meat dishes infused with Mediterranean herbs.

Each bite is complemented by local wine or tsipouro, and dessert comes sweet and simple — Greek yogurt with fruit and honey, or traditional pastries served with a view of the moonlight dancing on the water. Please inform us of any allergies or dietary preferences so we can tailor your menu. For us, food is more than a meal; it’s a gesture of hospitality and love.

Private sunset cruise

For those seeking total privacy, Spiliada can be yours for the evening. Charter the entire boat and crew for an exclusive private sunset cruise designed around your wishes. Enjoy full use of our facilities, including spacious decks, shaded lounges, and dining areas perfect for toasting the end of a perfect day.

Private or shared, each sunset cruise is intimate and personal. With only a handful of guests on board, you’ll experience the serenity of sailing without crowds — just the sound of the waves, the hum of conversation, and the glow of the sun as it disappears behind the Sporades islands.

The Perfect Ending to a Perfect Day

As the sky turns violet and the first stars begin to appear, the schooner gently glides back towards Skiathos. The world feels quieter now — peaceful, content, wrapped in golden memory. You’ll step off the boat with wind-swept hair, sun-kissed skin, and the unmistakable sense that you’ve lived something special.

If you’re wondering what to do in Skiathos to make your evening unforgettable, this is it.
