There is room to relax and stretch out on the sun deck, with mats provided. Part of the deck can be shaded.

Food

Reality Check
This trip offers fabulous swimming opportunities. You should obviously ensure that you and your children are able to swim.
The minimum age on this trip is 5 years old.
There is limited space below deck so it is recommended to keep luggage to a minimum and use holdall as opposed to hard suitcase. Temperatures can get very high during the summer but there are plenty of opportunities to cool off in the sea.
Please note that sailing is not permitted by Greek Port Authorities when the wind is force 6 and over, so the itinerary and overnight stops may vary according to the weather conditions as well as the mooring space availability.
We strongly recommend that you read the information on pages 6-7 and 86-87 of the Families brochure before booking this holiday. Alternatively, see to the Are You Family page.
Normal group size and age
Normally 8 to 12, plus leader and crew. Minimum age 5.
