Embark on a captivating journey through the azure waters of Santorini with this stress-free 5-hour Semi-Private cruise, promising an unforgettable experience surrounded by breathtaking landscapes and pristine seas!

Step into a world of unparalleled beauty and tranquility as you join this 5-hour Semi-Private cruise on the stunning island of Santorini! Immerse yourself in the allure of the Aegean Sea, where crystal-clear waters meet the iconic Caldera Cliffs. This carefully curated experience offers a perfect blend of relaxation and exploration, allowing you to discover hidden gems along the coastline while savoring the serenity of the Mediterranean, promising you an adventure filled with mesmerizing sights and cherished memories with other fellow travelers on board!

The excursion provides guests with the flexibility to choose between two enchanting options, the Daytime and Sunset tours. With a fixed itinerary designed to discover most of the island’s famous sites, get ready to bask in the daylight splendors or relish the enamoring magic of the evening glow!

Experience the island’s charm and picturesque grace as you set sail from the southern marina of Vlychada! Choose from a 10:30 or a 15:30 departure and follow the coast to the red sands of Red Beach and the neighboring cove of White Beach. There, you will be afforded the chance to capture some of the most spellbinding snapshots that will preserve lasting memories! Afterward, you will move forward to Mesa Pigadia Beach. Jump in for a swim in the waters of this crystalline beach if you desire, before venturing below the imposing Indian Rocks and marvel at the sea caves and rock formations below the old Venetian Lighthouse. As the journey continues, you will get jaw-dropping views of the prominent Volcano as you travel through the middle of the Caldera, and visit the Hot Springs for an alternative warm bath. Then, you will reach a private bay, in Nea Kameni (the active Volcano), where you can relax on the deck or jump in for a swim. Frolic in the water as the crew prepares a buffet lunch or dinner to satisfy your hunger along with Greek salad and traditional appetizers. Opting for the sunset option will leave you enthralled by the beguiling sunset in the vicinity of Akrotiri!

Whether you prefer the invigorating Daytime experience or the bewitching fascination of the evening’s radiance, each option promises a distinct and enduring adventure! The Day Cruise presents the ideal opportunity to enjoy a refreshing swim in the warmer morning sea, providing a rejuvenating start to your journey. In contrast, the sunset cruise offers the unique advantage of witnessing the majestic sunset from the comfort of the vessel, creating a magical and loving atmosphere.

During each cruise, indulge in a culinary delight with the traditional BBQ Greek menu prepared on board, featuring a mouthwatering array of options to tantalize your taste buds! Savor the succulence of BBQ chicken fillet, complemented by the freshness of a Greek Salad adorned with feta cheese. Bliss in the soothing flavors of pasta with tomato sauce, relish the unique taste of dolmadakia (vine leaves expertly rolled and stuffed with rice and fresh herbs), and dive into the cool and refreshing tzatziki sauce, a traditional Greek yogurt and cucumber dip, accompanied by the warmth of freshly baked bread. The meal is also completed with wine and soft drinks. What is more, seamless roundtrip transportation is provided on this cruise, ensuring a serene journey from and to your stay. So, get ready to submerge yourself in the exploration with this English-speaking guided tour, on a fully equipped vessel, which also includes complimentary snorkeling equipment and towels for your ease.

Experience the magic of Santorini like never before on this 5-hour Semi-Private cruise, where every moment promises to be a treasured collection against the dramatic surroundings of the Caldera Cliffs!
