Dia Island
Dia Island is an offshore island reached by boat from the Heraklion coast. The boat crossing turns its rocky coast and coves into a dedicated offshore excursion.

Keep exploring Heraklion with our travel partners.
Rocky shores and coves give Dia an offshore landscape unlike Heraklion's city beaches. The boat crossing is part of the experience, so the island works as an excursion planned around the sea. Its main payoff is the change of setting: leaving the urban coast to encounter a separate island shoreline from the water and on arrival.
What to look for
Rocky stretches define the island shore.
Coves interrupt the coastline around Dia.
Useful to know
Check boat availability and sea conditions before committing the day.
