Catamaran Semi-Private Sunset Cruise with BBQ, Drinks & Transfers — Santorini

Departing from Vlychada Marina on Santorini's southern coast, this catamaran cruise follows the island's volcanic shoreline past Red Beach, White Beach, and the Black Mountain before reaching the therapeutic Hot Springs. Guests swim directly in the warm, mineral-rich water — a distinctive feature of the caldera that distinguishes this route from standard sunset trips. From the water, the views of Fira, Imerovigli, and Oia appear across the cliff face as the light shifts toward sunset. Mid-cruise, the boat anchors at the sea caves of Mesa Pigadia for snorkeling. Snorkeling gear is provided on board. The catamaran then sails along the caldera rim as the sun descends, timing the approach to Oia's famous skyline with the final light of the day. On deck, the crew serves a Greek BBQ buffet: chicken fillet, pasta, Greek salad, tzatziki, vine leaf rolls, and bread, accompanied by white wine and soft drinks. The setup is semi-private — capacity is capped at 22 guests — which keeps the on-deck experience less crowded than large-boat equivalents. Roundtrip transfers from hotels across Santorini are included in the price, with pickup times confirmed after booking. Cruise Ship guests must reach the Fira office independently (via the cable car from the Old Port) at least one hour before departure. Departure times shift seasonally to align with the actual sunset, ranging from 13:00 in November to 15:30 in peak summer months.
