Board the St Georgios II at Protaras Pier for a 4–5 hour cruise that mixes sea‑cave sightseeing, swim stops in the Blue Lagoon and a deck BBQ. Expect a lively crowd, an inflatable slide, and chances to see turtles while learning local coastal history.

You step from Protaras Pier onto teak decks as the hull of the St Georgios II settles into a slow, confident roll. Salt vapour lifts off the water and the captain angles the bow toward Cape Greco; limestone cliffs and small caves slide past like chapters in a marine field guide. The inflatable slide waits at the stern, promising a short, joyful drop into turquoise water.
