Private 4 hr sunset cruise
The food was amazing. The host was very nice. The captain and host didn’t engage much with the 7 of us, but answered our questions when we asked. I wanted to do the full route presented on the website, but the water was rough on the south side of the island, so the tour was adapted. Unfortunately, the first swimming spot he took us to (on Thirasia) wasn’t that impressive. There was quite a rough current and the water was deep and very dark blue which intimidated the kids a bit. Excellent views of the island of Fira from that spot though. The last stop close to Oia with the little church and the cave was the best. The watching of the sunset was magical and breathtaking but the mad rush to get us off the boat and in the car was a bit intense. I guess that is part of the experience. There are thousands of other people all trying to get up the one road back to Oia at the same time, so it is to be expected. I worried that the boat would be too small because it is quite short, but because it is a catamaran it is easily big enough for 7 people plus crew.
