The Honest Local Review
What Is the
Fantasy Boat Party?
The Fantasy Boat Party is one of the most well-known events in Ayia Napa — and it deserves the reputation. CyCruises runs it out of Ayia Napa harbour on a proper party boat with resident DJs, entertainment staff, swim stops and food and drink included. 4 hours at sea, surrounded by the most beautiful coastline in the Mediterranean.
I've sent hundreds of tourists on this over the years. If you're a group looking for a memorable day on the water — part party, part sightseeing — this is the one. The swim stop at the Blue Lagoon alone is worth the ticket price. And the open bar for 30 minutes gets things going nicely before the DJs kick in. Note — selected drinks only, conditions apply.
💡 Alex's honest tip
Book online in advance — especially for July and August when this sells out regularly. If you're a group of 6+, WhatsApp me and I can sometimes arrange a group rate or priority boarding. Don't show up on the day hoping to buy a ticket in peak season.

How the Day Goes
What to Expect
on the Day
Before
Meet at Ayia Napa Harbour. Get there 15–20 minutes early. Bring sunscreen, a towel, swimwear and cash for extra drinks after the open bar (selected drinks only, conditions apply). No need to bring food.
Departs
Boat leaves the harbour. DJs start, music kicks in, crew gets the energy going. Find your spot — front deck for sun, upper level for views, lower for shade.
At Sea
Open bar window opens. 30 minutes of free drinks. Make the most of it — it goes quickly. Lunch is also served during the cruise.
Swim Stop
Anchor at the Blue Lagoon. Jump off the boat, swim in crystal clear turquoise water. This is the highlight for most people. The sea caves are visible from here — spectacular.
Return
Back to Ayia Napa harbour. About 4 hours total. Most people head to bars or restaurants in town to continue the afternoon. Plenty of time before the evening starts.
⚠️ Important — 18+ strictly
The Fantasy Boat Party is an 18+ event. ID will be checked at boarding. There are no exceptions. If you're travelling with under-18s, look at the Blue Star Family Sea Adventure instead — it's an excellent family option.
