8:04
Ah, look, here’s Andreas actually doing some “real work” now

8:11
all your trips and where you went
8:12

Andreas, i guess everybody when they come on this tour
8:18
they all want to see a turtle
8:20
it’s not guaranteed is it?
8:21
No.
8:22
We had also dolphins a few days ago
8:24
but you never know where you’re gonna find them
8:26
like, when you’re sailing, they come next to you
8:29
and they make a show, jump in front of the boat

About the Aphrodite II Lazy Day Cruise
With so many boat trips on offer in Ayia Napa, figuring out where to spend your valuable holiday time and money can feel tricky. You’ll find reps everywhere, all trying to convince you their tour is the absolute best.
But as you saw in our video, we genuinely believe the Aphrodite II Lazy Day Cruise offers a unique and fantastic day out. That’s why we’re absolutely confident in recommending it, especially for families looking for a memorable experience
Need to know facts about the Aphrodite II Lazy Day Cruise
It’s a wonderful day out for all ages, perfect for kids, teenagers, and adults alike.
This is not a “party cruise” full of rowdy crowds! It’s designed for relaxation and enjoyment.
You don’t need to have kids to enjoy it either – many couples and solo travellers book and love this cruise.
Ticket Prices for the 2025 Season:
- €50 per person for anyone aged 12 or above.
- Kids (2-11 years) pay €25.
- Infants (under 2) travel free.
Your Ticket Price Includes:
- A relaxing 4-hour cruise, complete with enjoyable swimming stops.
- A delicious roast chicken lunch (don’t worry, vegetarian and vegan options are readily available!).
- Free WiFi to share your amazing photos.
- Comfortable sun mats on the upper deck.
- Binoculars for spotting distant sights.
- Free snorkelling equipment (with a €20 returnable deposit).
- Onboard facilities including showers and 5 WCs.
- A fully air-conditioned interior for comfort.
- Fully guided commentary in two languages: English and German.
Please note: Drinks are not included in your ticket price. However, you can easily purchase a great range of refreshments from the fully stocked bar in the main salon, including various drinks, cocktails, fresh coffee, tea, snacks, and ice cream – all at reasonable prices.
What to bring for your day on board the Aphrodite II Lazy Day Cruise
All you need to enjoy a day on the Aphrodite 2 Lazy Day Cruise is…
- Your booking confirmation
- Suncream
- Sunglasses
- Your swimming stuff (including a towel).
- Your phone/cameras to take some beautiful photos!
- Some cash if you want to leave a tip (see below)
- Credit/Debit card to pay for drinks (you can also pay using your mobile phone if you prefer – just make sure you are fully charged since this is a four hour cruise!).
You are also welcome to bring your snorkels and masks (highly recommended since the swimming stops are amazing!).
If you don’t have these, Aphrodite 2 provides them free of charge, but you must pay a 20 euro refundable deposit.
Good to know:
The cruise sails from Ayia Napa Harbour. Don’t confuse this with Ayia Napa Marina, which is out of town. See exact location details below.
Boarding is between 08:45 and 09:30 am, and the Aphrodite II sets sail promptly at 09.45 am.
You will return to Ayia Napa Harbour at around 2.30 pm.
Hotel pick-ups/drop-offs are available to and from Ayia Napa and Protaras hotels by prior arrangement.
Aphrodite II Lazy Day Cruise operates a full schedule, 7 days a week, from around the start of June until the end of October each year. However, cruises may be available earlier in the year, depending on weather conditions.
The captain of the Aphrodite II always reserves the right to alter the advertised route, as featured in our video, if weather conditions require it. This is for your safety and is not a regular occurrence.
Customers will receive a full refund or credit if they need to cancel (up to 24 hours before their scheduled cruise day). “No shows” will not be refunded.
Refunds will also be made promptly in the unlikely event of operator cancellation due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances. However, “no-shows” will be charged the full price.
Finally, for this section, while you may see turtles and perhaps even dolphins on some days, this is not guaranteed.
INSIDER TIP:
If you are making your own way to the Aphrodite II, get there early to secure your favourite spot.
Tipping/Gratuities?
Tipping the staff most certainly isn’t obligatory. Whether to tip or not is entirely up to you.
That said, we recommend you take a little cash to leave a small tip for the crew at the end of the trip.
We mention this because, from what we saw on our day on the Aphrodite II, most people wanted to show their appreciation to the hard-working crew.
The best way to tip is at the end, as you exit the boat, a few euros to say thanks will be greatly appreciated.
We can also assure you that any tips are shared equally between all staff members, so a few euros from each passenger makes a huge difference.
Our reasons for sharing the Aphrodite II Lazy Day Cruise
Our team spent a full day aboard the Aphrodite II Lazy Day Cruise in June 2024.
We chatted with the friendly crew and owners during our visit and spoke to many happy passengers.
Based on our firsthand experience, we confirm that the Aphrodite II offers an excellent, safe, and truly exceptional value-for-money family day out right here in Ayia Napa.
Here’s why we loved it and think you will too:
- Friendly & Passionate Crew: We were genuinely impressed by how friendly the owners and staff are; they truly love what they do! John, the host/MC, strikes the perfect balance with his helpful information about the sights, always happy to answer questions in both English and German.
- Relaxing Atmosphere: The onboard music is ideal for a relaxed day and never too loud.
- Excellent Route: The route taken by the Aphrodite II is excellent. You get to see so many wonderful sights along the way (see our video above for more details).
- Delicious Lunch Included: Your ticket includes a generous, delicious roast chicken lunch, prepared fresh onboard daily. It comes with roast potatoes, rice, fresh salad, and more; excellent vegetarian options were also available.
- Reasonable Drinks & Snacks: While drinks aren’t included, the fully stocked bar offers a great selection (their coffee is excellent!), and we can confirm the prices are very reasonable.
- Safety First at Swim Stops: We specifically noticed the extra care taken during swimming stops to ensure everyone’s safety and that no one is left behind. Plenty of life jackets are available free of charge.
- Spotlessly Clean Facilities: A delightful surprise for a boat of this size – the toilets onboard were spotlessly clean, relatively spacious, and even included baby changing facilities!
Because of all these reasons, we genuinely consider the Aphrodite II Lazy Day Cruise an unmissable day out from Ayia Napa for families and everyone looking for a fantastic, relaxing experience.

More about Ayia Napa Cyprus
Ayia Napa, Cyprus, at a glance
Ayia Napa and the amazing Nissi Beach (pictured above) is around 1 hour and 20 minutes from Nicosia, 50 minutes from Larnaca Airport and just 15 minutes from Protaras.
This resort town is lively during the summer (April to October each year) but very quiet in the winter, with just a handful of places remaining open.
The most popular months are July, August and September each year.
Ayia Napa is popular with tourists and many Cypriots too. This is because many residents of Nicosia own holiday homes in or near Protaras, which is very close to Ayia Napa and spend most summer weekends here. Nissi Beach is a particular favourite for everyone.
Ayia Napa is home to a beautiful harbour surrounded by Tavernas serving freshly caught seafood. It also has many fabulous restaurants and, of course, the world-famous bar street/club area.
