Together with the fantastic images that you will gain during your cruise, you will get to taste a delectable BBQ meal served with the famous Santorini white wine, beers, and soft drinks.
If you select the Sunset Cruise, a magical spectacle awaits as before the end of the cruise you will witness Santorini's captivating sunset.

Majestic amidst harsh weather condition
Thank u for providing us a different kind of experience in Santorini. Even though the weather was not the best on that day, u still took us in and made the most out of it. You gave us warnings and even advised us to cancel coz of the weather. But we braved thru the winds and big waves and was in awe of how you both delivered us safely back to shore. We will definitely recommend you and would seek your services again when we go back. Efcharisto!, Excellent!, A great experience!, Excellent!
