Relax on deck in the morning sun as you sail past the Blue Caves – a string of sea grottoes carved into the coastline – en route to the island's most beautiful beach, Lalaria. This sweep of white pebbles is a little slice of heaven and only accessible by boat. Follow this up with a stop at Kastro beach, where you can sunbathe in the shadow of the island's former capital, Kastro. Here, you can walk around the preserved ruins and learn what live would've been like here during its heyday in the 13th and 14th centuries.
