Santorini Caldera Gold Day Cruise with BBQ on board and Open Bar
Overview
The Day Cruise begins from the port of Vlychada at the Southern part of Santorini. We sail close to the Red and the White beach, with our first stop ashore the Black Mountain for a swim! Put your goggles on! We carry on our sailing adventure pass the Venetian Light house in Akrotiri, entering the majestic Caldera of Santorini! “Keep your ear to the ground”, as the guided part of the cruise begins…! Keep your eyes open and admire the volcanic area, where the spectacular soil horizon colours at the cliffs of the Caldera will simply amaze you! While heading towards the Hot Springs, let the energy of the Volcano and the spirit of the island shake you up! Next stop is Thirassia island, a fishermen’s island, ideal for swimming and snorkelling. The cruise ends in one of the most amazing spots in Santorini, the old harbour of Ammoudi. In Oia. (Shhh…there might be some spare time for a pit-stop at Agios Nikolaos before disembarkation...!)
