The impressive volcanic Red Beach is the perfect representation of what the volcanic eruption created in Santorini’s landscape. Snorkeling at the magnificent turquoise waters and sightseeing at Red beach's scarlet rocks from aboard. Do not forget to take photos!
The beach colors change as your cruise passes from the Red to the White Beach. This beach is accessible only by boat so get ready to see yet another coastal miracle of Santorini.
One of the most beautiful secluded beaches of Santorini comes up next. Surrounded by rocks this black beach has crystal clear waters and it is lovely to swim or snorkel here.
You are at the south side of Santorini where at the very end the Lighthouse of Santorini is located, a charming lighthouse tower that “waves” back at sailors that are passing by its bay.
The volcano of Santorini. The one that erupted in 1.600 BC and created the amazing caldera of Santorini. The black rocks look like crystal where a dive at the therapeutic waters of the Sulfur Springs.
The next stop is all about gastronomy on board, we make a long stop at the Nea Kameni Island for more swimming and snorkeling and an unforgettable dinner experience made with the finest ingredients.

From start to finish, this sunset catamaran cruise was absolutely incredible and easily the highlight of our Santorini trip! Hotel pick up was perfectly on time, and the transport to the port was air con, comfortable, and hassle free. The staff were friendly from the moment they collected us. The catamaran itself was spacious with plenty of seating, so it never felt crowded. It had everything you needed for swimming and snorkelling, and the swim stops were fantastic. We had plenty of time at each location and never felt rushed. The lunch was unreal! Honestly the best meal we had during our time in Santorini! The food was fresh, delicious, and there were unlimited drinks throughout the cruise, including beer and wine, which was a huge bonus. What really made the experience special was the crew. They were so much fun, incredibly engaging, and created such a great atmosphere. They even let us play our own music, which got everyone singing and dancing together. To top it all off, watching the beautiful Santorini sunset on the cruise back to the port was the perfect ending to an unforgettable day. I couldn’t recommend this experience more. If you’re visiting Santorini, this cruise is an absolute must do! Thanks crew!! Will & Pip
The afternoon catamaran cruise was the highlight of our visit. Great views and swimming places, very friendly and caring crew (Sara, Evans and Nicolas were amazing), wonderful food and drinks, gorgeous sunset. What else could one wish!
The crew was outstanding in every way, from educating us at each stop to cooking and serving us a delicious Greek feast and unlimited drinks. The entire experience and views were amazing.
It was a really great trip! The staff was very friendly, provided us with great information about Santorini, and cooked for us incredibly well. We would do it again every time, highly recommended.
We had a fantastic catamaran sailing experience in Santorini. During the four-hour cruise we explored the caldera, visited several of the island’s most interesting spots, enjoyed some snorkelling, and were treated to delicious food on board. The three-man crew were excellent—friendly, attentive, and looked after us exceptionally well throughout. Although it was a semi-private cruise for up to 16 people, there were only us 4 on board, which made the experience feel even more special and relaxed. A wonderful way to see Santorini, and highly recommended.
The crew on carpe diem where great, they helped make the day run smoothly from start to finish. Small group was great, as there was plenty of room to move around the catamaran.
Great experience. The crew was wonderful and we saw some of the best spots in Santorini. They made us fresh food and were incredibly attentive.
