Enjoy sailing through the Santorini Lagoon and reach the volcanic islands of Santorini to enjoy an optional swim at the warm springs of the volcano – famous for its sulfurous waters and the warmer temperatures due to the volcanic activity.

With a drink in hand such as a glass of wine, beer, or cold soda, head towards the north side of Santorini where the iconic town of Oia lies.

Witness unparalleled views of Santorini during sunset time, as the boat sails under the cliffs of Oia town and next to the traditional bay of Ammoudi filled with romantic Greek seafood restaurants.

Difference between Sunset Cruises

The main difference between the luxury sunset cruise and the classic sunset cruise in Santorini option is that the luxury sunset cruise starts from the marina of Vlychada(south part) and ends at Ammoudi Bay (Oia town, north part) while the classic sunset cruise departs and returns at the marina of Vlychada(south part).
By choosing the luxury sunset cruise tour option you will be practically sailing on a longer route and maximizing your sightseeing opportunities.
Swimming is included in all sunset cruises, there will be 2 swimming stops performed for 20-30 minutes each. Both the luxury and the classic sunset cruise are a mix of sightseeing and swimming, a 60-70% sightseeing and 30-40% swimming. Both sunset cruises are relaxing, and fun and you will be enjoying a Greek meal served “family style” including drinks such as white wine, beer, or sodas. The luxury sunset cruise is longer in terms of distance covered and ends with the most romantic sunset views offered, next to the old bay of Ammoudi filled with traditional Greek seafood restaurants and under the cliffs of Oia town. We would recommend this option for guests staying in Oia town or the Imerovigli area, or for guests opting for the most romantic sunset cruise in Santorini.
