What To Expect
Board a modern catamaran yacht and cruise along the caldera cliffs of Santorini for a top-notch experience on the water, cruising towards the Red and White beaches, trying your hand at swimming at the warm springs of the volcano, and enjoying a full Greek meal with drinks prepared on board.
Take in stunning views of the caldera as you glide through the shimmering waters of the Aegean Sea.
Cruise towards the Red Beach and White or Mesa Pigadia beaches and swim at the warm volcanic springs where parts of the water are warmer due to the volcanic activity that exists for centuries on the island.
A delicious fresh meal including BBQ chicken, pan-fried fish fillets, shrimp, pasta with tomato and basil, and complimentary Greek wine, beer, and sodas provide the finishing touches, at a secluded bay of the Santorini lagoon.
Numbers are limited to a maximum of 20 guests plus crew, ensuring a relaxing and comfortable experience.

Difference between the Luxury Sunset Cruise and South Beaches Cruise Options:
The main difference between the luxury sunset cruise and the classic sunset cruise tour option is that the luxury sunset cruise starts from the marina of Vlychada(south part) and ends at Ammoudi Bay (Oia town, north part) while the classic sunset cruise departs and returns at the marina of Vlychada(south part). By choosing the luxury sunset cruise tour option you will be practically sailing on a longer route and maximizing your sightseeing opportunities. Swimming is included in all sunset cruises, there will be 2 swimming stops performed for 20-30 minutes each. Both the luxury and the classic sunset cruise are a mix of sightseeing and swimming, we would say 60-70% sightseeing and 30-40% swimming. Both sunset cruises are relaxing, and fun and you will be enjoying a Greek meal served "family style" including drinks such as white wine, beer, or sodas. The luxury sunset cruise is a longer cruise in terms of distance covered and ends with the most romantic sunset views offered, next to the old bay of Ammoudi filled with traditional Greek seafood restaurants and under the cliffs of Oia town. We would recommend this option for guests staying at Oia town or the Imerovigli area, or for guests opting for the most romantic sunset version of Santorini.
Difference between the Luxury Morning Cruise and South Beaches Cruise Options:
The main difference between the luxury morning cruise and the classic morning cruise options is that the luxury morning cruise starts from the bay of Ammoudi(Oia town, north part) and ends at Vlychada marina (south part) while the classic morning cruise departs and returns at the marina of Vlychada(south part). By choosing the luxury morning cruise tour option you will be practically sailing on a longer route and maximizing your sightseeing opportunities. Swimming is included in all morning cruises, there will be 2 swimming stops performed for 20-30 minutes each. Both the luxury and the classic morning cruise are a mix of sightseeing and swimming, we would say 60-70% sightseeing and 30-40% swimming. Both morning cruises are relaxing, and fun and you will be enjoying a Greek meal served "family style" including drinks such as white wine, beer, or sodas. The luxury morning cruise is a longer cruise in terms of the distance covered.
