Discover Santorini’s Iconic Coastline on a Private Yacht Adventure!
Embark on an unforgettable private yacht cruise around Santorini, a perfect choice for couples, friends, or small groups seeking a luxurious and personalized way to explore the island's beauty. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply want to enjoy the Aegean Sea in style, this exclusive experience blends relaxation, adventure, and breathtaking scenery, all from the comfort of a fully equipped yacht.
Guests can choose from three cruise options tailored to different preferences and schedules. The 5-hour Day Cruise departs at 10:30 and is perfect for those who want to enjoy the sun and crystal-clear waters. The 5-hour Sunset Cruise begins at 15:30 and is ideal for guests who wish to experience Santorini's world-famous sunset from the sea. For those looking for a complete island experience, the 10-hour Full-Day Cruise also departs at 10:30 and offers extended time at sea, allowing for a deeper exploration of the island’s stunning coastline and hidden gems.
The cruise begins at Vlychada Marina and starts with a visit to the famous Red Beach, known for its striking volcanic cliffs and vivid colors, followed by a stop at the beautiful White Beach, where guests can take photos and enjoy the wild natural surroundings. The journey continues past the Black Mountain, offering a perfect opportunity to swim or snorkel in the crystal-clear waters. As you sail towards the caldera, you’ll spot the historic Akrotiri Lighthouse before reaching the volcano and nearby hot springs, where you can enjoy an alternative swim and feel the island’s geothermal energy. The final stop is the traditional island of Therasia, where guests can swim once more and enjoy the authentic Greek cuisine and Santorini wine at a seaside taverna. If you choose the Sunset Cruise or the Full-Day Cruise, the experience concludes with the unforgettable view of Santorini’s famous sunset from the sea near Akrotiri.
While all three cruise options follow a similar route, each offers a unique experience. The Day Cruise focuses on sun-filled moments and swimming, while the Sunset Cruise adds a romantic element with the iconic Santorini sunset as a backdrop. The Full-Day Cruise combines the best of both worlds, offering more time at each stop and a leisurely pace for those who want to fully immerse themselves in the beauty and culture of the island.
The cruise includes round-trip transportation to and from your accommodation, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience. Onboard, guests are welcomed with a glass of Prosecco and treated to premium snacks, a bottle of semi-sweet sparkling wine, fresh seasonal fruits, and a platter of meats and cheeses. Snorkeling equipment and towels are also provided, so you can dive into the adventure comfortably.
Whether you're after relaxation, exploration, or romance, this private cruise promises to be a highlight of your time in Santorini.

Trip in November - keep in mind its too cold for swimming
If I am to complain about one thing it is that you truly cannot swim in November - the water is around 19 degrees, and the water next to volcano is the same, with only some warm spots - which you should find by swimming through the 19-degrees water... Otherwise, it was a very relaxing experience even with high waves.

Excellent experience
We were very well looked after from pick up to tour itself. Food was delicious. Small number of people on boat crested intimate experience. Boat was impressive, clean and the voyage felt smooth and safe. Well chosen stops. A memorable day out.
