Starting location Vlychada Marine
Starting time10:00 AM (Daytime Cruise) or 15:30 (Sunset Cruise)

Our cruise starts from Vlychada port and the first stop is at the magnificent volcanic Red Beach where you can swim in crystal clear waters, try snorkeling, and admire a jaw-dropping landscape.

Then, as we sail towards the Volcano and the renowned Hot Springs, you have the chance to set eyes on White Beach, which is another spectacular scenery of the island, the admirable lighthouse of Akrotiri and a distinctive rock formation on the caldera cliffs, called The Indian Rock.

Next, we sail around the volcano and anchor there in order to take in the splendid view and enjoy a delicious Seafood BBQ lunch or dinner, specially prepared and served by the crew. In the meantime, you can swim or go snorkeling (snorkeling equipment is available on board) in the volcano’s waters.

Afterward, we sail along the uninhabited Aspronisi Island, opposite of Santorini, and we reach Mesa Pigadia Beach, a lovely peaceful cove, for swimming, snorkeling or just sunbathing on deck.

Finally, we sail back to Vlychada Marine. Departure time and arrival time depend on whether you choose the morning or the sunset cruise. If you choose the sunset tour, you will have the opportunity to experience one of the most sought-after sunsets in the world while on board.

Very nice Sailing Cruise

We had a very good time on the Sailing Cruise. The Captain and 1st mate did an awesome job of keeping us well informed of what we were seeing and made sure we were all comfortable and safe. We had sailed around the islands and stopped a couple times to go swimming. The water was very warm, nice and calm that we found it hard to get out lol. The dinner was excellent as well beverages. Then the Sunset, Wow! Highly recommend, Wonderful experience!

Best sunset cruise in Santorini!

This cruise was fantastic! We were picked up from our hotel around 1400, and driven 40 min to get to the port of departure. Our group was small, with a total of 7 people for our sunset cruise. The captain, George, was excellent! He shared with us about the history and geography of Santorini. It was obvious that he loves what he does and that made the experience unforgettable. We enjoyed complementary white wine and beers during the cruise. The stops were as advertised and the boat was very clean with plenty of the room to stay in the shade or sun bathe. The dinner was homemade and delicious! We all swam and snorkeled in crystal blue waters and got to see lots of fish - a beautiful experience!! Goggles and towels were included. I can’t recommend this cruise with George any more highly!! Enjoy! A great experience!, A great experience!, Well organized!, Wonderful experience!, Our guide was awesome!, Our guide was awesome!
