Contact and Book maRea Cruises

Get in touch the easy way

If you want to join a trip from Stavros, the quickest start is to send your preferred date, how many people you are, and which cruise you have in mind. We work here on the Strymonikos Gulf all season, so a clear message saves time and helps us point you to the right option first time.

An enquiry is not a confirmed booking until maRea Cruises replies to you directly or the booking system confirms it. That matters in summer, when places can move fast and weather can change plans a bit.

Check scheduled-trip availability

For shared departures such as the Morning Escape and Sunset Delight, send the date you want, your group size, and whether you have children with you. If your day is fixed, say so. If you have flexibility, add an alternative date too. That helps a lot in busy weeks, espescially around weekends and August.

Stavros is on the eastern side of the Thessaloniki regional area, by the Strymonikos Gulf, and many guests come from Thessaloniki city, Asprovalta, Vrasna and nearby villages. If you are staying outside Stavros, mention your accommodation area so the team can advise clearly on timing and meeting arrangements.

Private-cruise enquiry

If you are planning a birthday, family outing, proposal, relaxed swim day or a route with your own group, use the Private Cruises page or call for more information. Captain Argy knows these waters from childhood and from a life at sea, so private trips are usually shaped around sea conditions, the mood of the day and who is on board, not around stiff templates.

If you already know you want a quiet swim stop, a sunset setting, or time near the Athos Coast side of the wider area, say that in your first message. If not, no problem. A short honest note is enough and the team can guide you from there.

Fishing-trip enquiry

The Fishing Trip suits guests who want a more hands-on day and a bit of local sea life, not just a cruise with photos. Send your level of experience if you have any, plus the age of younger participants. On some days the sea is calm and clear, on others there is a bit of chop from the afternoon wind, so practical details matter more than fancy wording.

What information to send

The best enquiries are short and complete. You do not need to write a long story. Just include the facts that let the team check space, weather fit, and the right boat plan for your group.

Phone and messaging

Some guests prefer to sort things quickly by phone, especially for last-minute spaces or private plans. Use +30 697 212 3272 for calls. If messaging apps are active for the season, label them correctly as WhatsApp and Viber and confirm both before publication, along with operating hours and preferred language for replies.

That last point matters. A short message in English is usually easiest for international guests, but operator-confirmed language handling should be checked before this page goes live.

Social channels

For updates, photos and a feel for the boat and the mood on board, social can help. It is still better to send booking details by direct contact or form, not only in a comment or reaction.

Expected response and confirmation process

Sending a message does not hold places by itself. Your trip is confirmed only when maRea Cruises replies with confirmation, or when the booking system confirms your reservation. If something is unclear in your message, the team may ask for one or two missing details before they can finalise it.

For scheduled departures, availability can depend on the day, weather and current bookings. For private cruises and fishing trips, route and timing can also depend on sea conditions around Stavros and the wider Strymonikos Gulf, so it is worth checking the latest local forecast as your date comes closer at HNMS and general marine conditions at POSEIDON.

Weather-related communication

Out here the sea usually feels friendlier in the morning. Later in the day, especially in warmer months, the breeze can freshen and make things livlier than guests expect from the shore. If weather affects the plan, maRea Cruises will communicate using the contact details you provided, so make sure your phone number and email are correct.

Water clarity around Stavros can be beautiful on settled days, while windy spells can change visibility and comfort. That is normal in this part of the coast and one reason local judgement matters so much.

Meeting point after confirmation

After your booking is confirmed, you will receive the meeting point and practical joining details. For most departures this will relate to Stavros port, but always follow the confirmed instructions you are sent rather than assuming. When ready, link this clearly to Stavros Port Departure Point.

If you are new to the area, Stavros sits between Thessaloniki and the first leg of Halkidiki, with road access that is usually straightforward by car. Parking near the port can be easier outside peak hours, but in high summer it may take a little patience.

Useful local references

If you want to understand the area a bit better before you sail, these are worth a look: Visit Greece, Stavros, Thessaloniki, and information on nearby heritage such as Mount Athos on UNESCO. For data handling on your enquiry, add and link the page to Privacy Policy once published.
