Additional Information
• We begin our journey departing from Vlichada, a marina on the southern coast of Santorni, and follow the shoreline until we arrive at Akrotiri’s red beach. This is considered one of the island’s most picturesque beaches, its unique coloration attributed to mineral and iron-rich soil.
• Next, our course takes us to the white beach, where we highly encourage a stop for recreational swimming and snorkeling. We then steer towards the Old Venetian lighthouse, located at the island’s most southern tip. Our journey continues beneath the Indian Head mountain and into the Caldera Bay.
• As we enter the caldera of Santorini, an indescribably beautiful view unfolds. We’ll head towards the volcano (Palea Kameni), and make a stop at the Hot Springs, where you can swim in the sulphur-rich waters. After this, we’ll halt at Mesa Pigadia beach for a freshly prepared traditional Greek lunch aboard the ship before making our way back to Vlichada.

So incredible we had to book a second time during our stay! - We did both the day and sunset cruises and had the absolute best time! We were fortunate enough to have Don, Makis and Manos spoil us while we took in the absolutely breathtaking views and swam in the gorgeous water. All 3 gentlemen are amazing at what they do, genuinely wonderful people and such a pleasure to get to know! The food each time was delicious and the pricing is very fair for the quality of the experience.
We will definitely be back to Santorini and hope to see Don, Manos and Captain Makis again! Thank you!!!!!

Amazing day on the Wind Spirit - The day was incredible, Makis and Manos took such excellent care of us. The boat is clean and comfortable with many places to sit and take in the beautiful views. Lunch was delicious and we all agreed we got a restaurant quality meal! From setting up the perfect shot, taking us to cool spots to swim, explaining the different areas, to constantly asking if there was anything they could do, we couldn’t have asked for a better day.

Private cruise - Two words….absolutely amazing. The captain and crew were so doting and hospitable. Best experience in santorini. If you don’t book this excursion, you’re making a mistake. Just do it you will not regret it.
