Itinerary
The red beach is arguably the most famous and beautiful beaches of Santorini. It is also considered as one of the most spectacular beaches in Greece.
On White beach, which the locals often call White Sand (Aspri Ammos), the thing that sets it apart is exactly what gave it its name: the white color, which contrasts with the dark, reddish or ocher tones encountered on other shores. The beach has fine black sand and clear blue water
we stop at the black beach where it has this color due to the eruption of the volcano. you can enjoy your swim and sunbathe on the boat.
The Lighthouse of Akrotiri is among the oldest lighthouses in Greece and was constructed way back in 1892. It stands like a sentinel towards the sea, on the southern peninsula of Santorini island.
The Hot Springs of Santorini: The island of Nea Kameni, also known as the Santorini volcano, is a volcanic island at the centre of the impressive Santorini caldera. Nea Kameni was formed around 1570 after a series of volcanic eruptions. Nea Kameni is surrounded by warm dark waters which are known for their therapeutic benefits. The healing waters of Nea Kameni consist of iron and manganese which act against many diseases that older people usually suffer from.
The island of Thirassia is only 9 sq. km in size and has only one hundred and fifty permanent inhabitants. the food in the local taverns is very nice and authentic Greek cuisine. we stop there for about 60min for lunch in a traditional tavern and then we go onboard to continue our cruise
Ammoudi is encircled by the impressive high red cliffs and it is considered the most picturesque area of Santorini. Approximately 300 narrow and steep steps lead the way between Ammoudi and Oia. A small rocky beach stands right next to Ammoudi, ideal for snorkeling
Old port
We will stop near Aspronisi , so we will admire the sunset onboard. leave a romantic moment on board. Aspronisi was formed through the gradual volcanic activity in the Santorini caldera, which itself is composed of four distinct shield volcanoes.[5] The island was formed along with the current Santori caldera during a massive eruption in the 2nd millennium BC that expelled 14 cubic miles (60 km3 ) of dense rock. Aspronisi was briefly a submarine volcano before the force of the eruption pushed the islet above the surface, after which dense layers of pumice and tephra ejected from the volcano covered the island.

Very good experience for 5hrs!! Captain Spiros made the trip enjoyable and recommended an amazing restaurant on one of the islands we stopped. Good tour and complete if you want to see the places inaccessible by car or walking.
Skipper Peter was very pleasant, patient and extremely reassuring. He made us spend an exceptional half day and for me that will be unforgettable.
We had so much fun on our private cruise. Our host/captain Spiro was awesome. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about Greek culture and history of the island caldera. The views were breathtaking and out of this world, way beyond our expectations. Transportation to and back from the cruise was on time. We had a great time
The itinerary was good and was what made the ride a good ride. Unfortunately The driver was not friendly and made things uncomfortable and so it wasn’t what we expect it. I wouldn’t recommend this ride.
Dear Herbeth , First of all we would like to thank you for the feedback. If you are talking about the skipper of the motorboat unfortunately our skipper had a serious problem this day and we had to use an other skipper so we will not cancel the last min the cruise. Thank you again to let us know so we will not work with him in case we need him again
Excellent experience, really would highly recommend it, we done the morning experience looking back I should have done the afternoon experience to have been able to take in the amazing santorini sunset.
The captain was patient and explained the surrounding areas. The transfers to and from the port were awful…rude and did not engage or speak any English
The sailor and guide on this private tour were super amazing. They really did a fantastic job with the stops , photos , entertaining kids and the fresh cooked food !!
Very well organised. We were picked up just near our hotel and taken to the marina, quite far from Fira. The boat was fast, clean and driven well by our skipper who was really friendly and who seemed to love showing us Santorini from a completely different perspective from the hustle of the busy towns. We swam at Red Beach and White Island where the water was super clear. In between our skipper had prepared a light snack with fresh fruit and wraps. We covered a huge distance, so thankfully the water was very flat and calm. The itinerary was well planned. There was food, refrigerated drink, towels, snorkles and a toilet on board. The hot springs were just a bit disappointing as they were not that hot and there was some rubbish in the surrounding rocks (but still worth a visit as the lava formations are something different then I've ever seen). We were taken to a rustic restaurant right on the water's edge in Thirassa which had the most authentic Greek food we have had so far. On the way back we had a glass of wine and looked out at the famous sunset over the open water.
Demetri was very accommodating and even though the weather was a little sketchy; we had a great time
thank you very much for your review mrs Casey. we hope to see you again on Santorini
This was a great half day tour for a family. It was very relaxing and fun. Got to see all the top sites.
