How the split works. The calculator adds up adults × the adult rate and children × the child rate for your chosen cruise, then divides the total by your group. Per head splits across everyone, per adult splits only between the paying adults, and by couples divides into pairs. Switch to Custom to split any number of ways.
Prices are per person and already include the on-board menu, soft drinks, wine or beer, fuel, crew and water-sports equipment. Tips and spirits or cocktails are extra. You confirm with a 30% deposit online and settle the balance on the day (cash on board).
About the figures: prices are current public per-person rates for DanEri day cruises and can change by season, date and availability. The price shown at checkout for your chosen date is always the one that applies. This calculator is a planning estimate, not a quote.
Day-trip cost & splitting the bill — common questions
How much does a catamaran day trip in Crete cost?
DanEri catamaran day cruises in Crete run about €120–€195 per adult and €85–€140 per child (ages 0–9.99), depending on the cruise, its length and the tier (Comfort or VIP). The price includes food cooked on board, soft drinks, wine or beer, fuel, crew and water-sports equipment.
How do I split the cost of a cruise between friends?
Add up each adult and child at their rate to get the total, then divide by your group. This calculator does it three ways: per head (everyone splits equally), per adult (only the adults pay), or by couples (split into pairs). You can also enter any custom number of ways.
How much deposit do I pay to book?
You confirm a DanEri cruise with a 30% deposit online and pay the balance on the day. For example, a €300 booking takes a €90 deposit now and €210 on the day.
Are children cheaper on a DanEri cruise?
Yes. Children aged 0–9.99 years pay a reduced rate — typically €85–€140 depending on the cruise — compared with €120–€195 for adults.
What is included in the price?
Every cruise includes a menu freshly cooked on board, soft drinks plus wine or beer, fuel, crew and equipment for water activities such as SUP and snorkelling. Tips and spirits or cocktails are not included.
Is hotel transfer included in the cruise price?
It depends on the cruise. Some departures — especially from city ports — offer separate “with transfer” and “without transfer” options, while others have no transfer at all. Check the specific cruise when booking, or contact DanEri to arrange a pickup.
Can we book the whole catamaran privately?
Yes. A private charter books the whole boat for your group at a per-group price rather than per person, which often works out well for larger groups. Ask DanEri for a private-charter quote.
