Located in the serene harbor of Ormos Panagias (and Thessaloniki), Prive Cruises offers an entirely different perspective on exploring the waters of Halkidiki. Far from the packaged tours and crowded boats, Prive specializes in bespoke private cruises designed for travelers seeking comfort, seclusion, and true maritime elegance.
With a fleet of modern yachts and motorboats, and an expert crew that handles every detail — from navigation to fine onboard service — Prive Cruises sets the standard for luxury sea experiences in Northern Greece.
Custom-Tailored Itineraries
Each cruise is a fully customizable journey. For a short half-day escape or a full-day adventure across the Sithonia coastline, Prive offers routes that include:
- Diaporos Island and the Blue Lagoon – Known for its shallow turquoise waters, this area is ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and anchoring in total peace.
- Ammouliani Island and Drenia Islets – Hidden coves, calm seas, and Blue Flag beaches make these destinations perfect for longer getaways.
- Kavourotripes (Orange Beach) – Accessible only by sea, this iconic beach is framed by white rock formations and pine-covered hills.
- Mount Athos Coastline – For guests seeking a more contemplative experience, a cruise past the ancient monasteries of Mount Athos offers a rare and unforgettable view from the water.
All routes can be adjusted according to guest preferences, weather conditions, and special requests.
