Akamas Coast & Blue Lagoon Boat Trip from Latchi (4 hours, BBQ + Snorkel)

The Akamas Coast & Blue Lagoon trip is a 4-hour cruise from Latchi Harbour (Paphos district) that visits the Manolis Sea Caves, St George's Island, and the Blue Lagoon on the Akamas Peninsula. €34 adult, €22 child. Includes a 1-hour anchored swim stop at the Blue Lagoon, BBQ lunch on board, snorkel gear, local wine and soft drinks. Suitable for ages 5+. Operates April–October; daily departures at 10:00. From Michael Economou, Exyde Founder & Head Curator. If you only have half a day in west Cyprus, take the Latchi route — not the Paphos Harbour one. Boats from Paphos take ~90 minutes each way and you'll only get 20 minutes at anchor. From Latchi the same destination is 25 minutes away, leaving you a full hour to actually swim. The Blue Lagoon itself is small — about 200m across — and gets crowded by midday in July and August. Booking the 10:00 departure gets you there before the larger group boats arrive at 12:30. Itinerary. 10:00 boarding at the eastern jetty of Latchi Harbour (the easier loading point for families with prams). 10:25 a slow pass along the sculpted limestone Manolis Sea Caves, part of the Akamas Peninsula National Park. 10:50 a brief anchor at St George's Island, a small uninhabited islet topped by a 13th-century chapel. 11:15 the Blue Lagoon stop — one hour at anchor. Water averages 24°C in summer; visibility commonly 15–20 metres; depth at the anchor point rarely exceeds 5m. BBQ lunch (grilled chicken, halloumi, Greek salad, seasonal fruit, bread) served mid-stop. 12:15 a slow return along the Akamas cliffs, with Manolis Bay and the Baths of Aphrodite coastline visible. 14:00 return to Latchi. Practical. Maximum 20 passengers per boat. Minimum 6 to depart. Free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure; weather cancellations refunded in full.
