Our high-speed boat excursion in Santorini was an absolute thrill from start to finish! From the moment we set off from the port, the exhilarating speed and stunning views of the island’s famous caldera and dramatic cliffs took my breath away. We had multiple stops and plenty of time to swim, relax, and soak in the breathtaking surroundings. The boat crew, Captain Minas and Estefano were fantastic—super friendly and informative, offering interesting tidbits about Santorini’s history and geology. Lunch at Captain John’s seaside restaurant was amazing! If you’re looking for an excursion that combines adventure, stunning scenery, and a bit of relaxation, this is a must-do while in Santorini! I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting the island.
Outstanding service from Caldera Yachting. The crew on our ‘black phantom’ Technohull 40s speedboat were knowledgable and the service they provided was excellent. The boat was modern and luxurious. A boat trip is a fantastic way to see the island from a completely different view point, which you cannot get on land. Highly recommended! , A great experience!, Excellent!, Wonderful experience!
