Santorini (Thíra), Greece

Cruise the Caldera

Scenic Beauty of Santorini’s Stunning Coastline Discover the natural beauty of Santorini’s coastline during a private sailing to its caldera. The island’s crescent-shaped features are the result of a volcanic eruption sinking much of the island and creating its steep cliffs. Travel to the marina in Vlihada, where you will board your private catamaran and meet your crew. Enjoy appetizers and drinks as you head out into the Aegean Sea. Feel the sea breeze and admire the views as you sail past beautiful beaches, the rock formations of Akrotiri and the Venetian lighthouse on the island’s southern tip. Keep your camera ready as you sail through the caldera. Gaze up at the whitewashed villages of Thíra, Thírostefani, Imerovigli and Oia perched high above you, and the green and yellow waters of the natural hot springs surrounding the volcano. Afterward, descend to the harbor in a cable car and tender back to your ship. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
