I loved everything about the sunset tour in Santorini. We did the beaches, the volcano and sunset. One of the best experiences of our lives. The Yacht team was very hospitable. We had an amazing BBQ with all you want refreshments. There was swimming in the sea. We took so many beautiful photos. I would definitely book this tour again or another one with the Santorini Yacht Club.

Good overall; hot springs swimming was the fanciest part. There was a confusion about the pickup place and time (I didn't get an email) so I had to call to the office and rescheduled it for the following day.

This was brilliant from start to finish. I was worried it might not happen as never used headout before but was super easy to book and join the event. The boat itself was a lovely Greek sailing boat and it took us to three different amazing locations across the island. They served food onboard which was exceptional and the staff were so polite and helpful, nothing was too much travel. The private transfer back from NST was an amazing surprise and would use again.

The experience was great for our family of 6. The crew were very nice and tentative. The lunch was enjoyed all around! Kebabs, pasta, salad and drinks! My only complaint was that we wished we had longer to snorkel at the 2 locations, but understand the time schedule. The water was perfect!

Santorini Volcano Sunset Dinner Cruise & Open Buffet with Transfers

Sail the stunning Aegean Sea at Santorini

Get ready to sail into the heart of paradise with Santorini Cruises! Hop aboard a comfy boat and glide through the island’s sparkling blue waters as jaw-dropping views unfold around you — think iconic white-washed houses clinging to dramatic cliffs, steaming hot springs, colorful beaches, and sunsets that’ll steal your breath (and fill your camera roll.

What to expect on a Santorini boat tour

Guests on Santorini Catamaran Cruise admiring Aegean Sea views.
  • Breathtaking views: Sail past the towering caldera cliffs, where whitewashed villages like Fira and Imerovigli perch like sugar cubes above the deep blue sea. As the sun dips low, watch Santorini's sky ignite in shades of fiery orange, soft pink, and deep gold. There's nothing quite like drifting on the water as Oia glows against the darkening cliffs.
  • Swim & snorkel in turquoise waters: Drop anchor in secluded bays where the water is clear and inviting. Dive in to discover a world of vibrant marine life beneath the surface, or simply float in the warm, salty Aegean.
  • Discover hidden beaches: Cruise to the island’s famous Red and White beaches — breathtaking stretches of coast framed by volcanic cliffs. Accessible only by sea, these remote shores offer a chance to sunbathe, swim, and snap photos far from the crowds.
  • Luxurious comfort: Stretch out on sun-drenched decks, sip chilled wine, and enjoy a gourmet Greek feast prepared on board. Whether you’re soaking in the sun or relaxing under the shade, every moment is wrapped in luxury.

Things to know before booking your Santorini boat tour tickets

  • Some Santorini cruises are all about scenic sightseeing and swim stops, while others come with extras like Greek BBQs, open bars, and sunset views. Decide whether you're looking for a laid-back coastal experience, a fun group outing with food and drinks, or a private celebration on the water.
  • Morning cruises are best for swimming, snorkeling, and soaking up the sun at Red and White Beach, while sunset cruises are perfect if you’re after golden hour views over Oia and a more relaxed, romantic vibe.
  • Hotel transfers are included on most cruises, but not always. If you’re staying in a remote area, double-check whether your pick-up location is covered or if you’ll need to arrange your own ride to the port.
  • Santorini cruises depart from multiple points around the island. The main ones are: Vlychada Marina(Common starting point for most catamaran cruises), Ammoudi Bay(Best for sunset cruises near Oia), Athinios Port(Used for private or semi-private tours)
  • Ticket prices vary depending on the type of boat, group size, and inclusions. Standard shared cruises are budget-friendly, while premium catamaran or private yacht cruises come with added perks like gourmet meals, fewer guests, and personalized service.
  • Cruises tend to sell out quickly during peak months (June to September), especially for sunset departures and small-group or luxury options. It’s best to book two to four weeks in advance. This gives you better options for timing, boat type, and add-ons like hotel transfers or window seating.
  • Not all cruises are suitable for infants or toddlers. If you're traveling with young children, check the age restrictions and boat type. Private cruises tend to offer more flexibility for families.
  • Most boats are modern catamarans or traditional-style yachts with shaded seating, open decks, and onboard toilets. The experience is scenic and smooth, but if you're prone to motion sickness, catamarans tend to offer better stability.
  • Cruise routes vary slightly—some stop at the hot springs near the volcano, while others add detours to Indian Rock or Mesa Pigadia. If there's a specific spot you want to see, check if it's included in the route before booking.

Visitor tips
View of the Majestic Catamaran Caldera Cruise

Santorini is a captivating island that offers year-round appeal. With that in mind, you can tailor your Santorini Cruise to your preferences.

  • A Beach Holiday: If you're seeking a beach getaway, the ideal time to visit is between June and September. During these months, the climate is sunny and hot, with July and August being the hottest months. These are perfect conditions for swimming, sunbathing, and lounging. Moreover, the lively nightlife is in full swing during the high season, giving visitors an abundance of activities to enjoy.
  • A Sightseeing Holiday: On the other hand, if you're interested in exploring Santorini's sights, wineries, and cuisine, April, May, October, and November are the best months to visit. The weather is still warm during these months, and you can enjoy pleasant strolls and treks. You'll also have the opportunity to go for a swim but be prepared for a little rain. The island is less crowded during these months, providing a serene and peaceful experience for your trip.
