The journey to Dia Island takes about an hour, depending on the weather. Most often, conditions allows us to raise our sails and use the power of wind. Along the way, keep an eye out for playful dolphins while listening to captivating tales about the island’s history and legends. Feel free to join in on the sailing activities if you’d like!
