Enjoy the beautiful Aegean waters with this Santorini Caldera Traditional Cruise. You'll board a traditional boat and explore the landscapes that surround the islands.

Description

Our traditional boat trip around the Santorini Caldera offers two options to fit your preferences and timetable. You can choose a morning cruise to maximize your day or an afternoon departure for a spectacular Greek sunset.

Morning Cruise

We'll pick you up from your hotel and head to the port to board a traditional boat. During the journey, we'll anchor near Red Beach and White Beach for swimming and snorkeling among colorful fish. We will sail past the 19th-century Akrotiri Lighthouse and the Indian rock formation, then head to the Palia Kameni coast for a dip in the thermal volcanic pools known for their skin-friendly minerals.

Next, we'll sail to the coast of Therasia for a delicious lunch including chicken, tzatziki, beans, fig leaves, salad, fruit, and a soft drink or white wine. We will return to the port 5 hours after departure.

Afternoon Cruise

For the afternoon cruise, the itinerary is similar but in reverse. After hotel pickup, we'll head to Therasia Island for swimming, then to Palia Kameni for thermal pool bathing. We will pass Black Mountain and see the Santorini lighthouse, Indian Rock, Red Beach, and White Beach. As the sun sets, you'll enjoy dinner before we arrive back on land 5 hours after pickup.

Type of Boat

On days with strong winds, the boat may be a catamaran instead of a traditional wooden boat for safety.

Hotel pickup

This activity includes pickup from hotels in Santorini. We'll contact you to confirm the pickup time, usually 1 hour before the activity starts.

Cruise without a Meal

If you prefer a cruise experience without a meal, options are available with guaranteed stunning landscape views.
