Santorini Volcano Sunset Cruise with Dinner

Description

Take our Santorini Volcano Sunset Cruise and ail across Santorini’s beautiful ‘caldera’ (flooded crater) and visit the islands of Nea Kameni and Thirasia on this 6-hour cruise.

Board a sightseeing boat from the old port, and admire Santorini’s cliffs and as you cruise to Nea Kameni. Enjoy free time to walk around its volcanic crater & swim in the warm springs. Have dinner on board and enjoy the sunset on board.

The Santorini Volcano Sunset cruise starts from the picturesque old port of Santorini or from Athinios port if you book the tour with transfers.

Our first destination will be the famous volcano of Santorini! After 20 minutes sailing, we will reach Nea Kameni’s jetty. Should you are interested to be guided at the volcano, you should pay 2.5euro/ per person as an entrance fee.

Then, you will walk to the volcano’s ridge with your guide and he is going to explain you everything about the history and the geology of the volcano. You will stay at the volcanic island for 1.5hr and in the end you will embark again to our boat for the next stop.

Next stop will be the island of Palea Kameni where the famous hot springs are located on the west side. A place that is really popular for its thermal waters. We will stop there for 30min at a distance of 30 meters from the shallow waters of Agios Nicholaos’ beach.

The waters are mixed with mud that they are full of sulfur, iron and other metals coming from the volcano and they are very good for the skin, rheumatism, arthritis and other physical pains.

Important Note : In order to reach Agios Nicholaos’ beach is essential to swim extremely well.

Sailing above the underwater craters from Palia Kameni to Thirasia Island, the boat will anchor close to the island in order to enjoy your dinner or snack. Our experienced staff will prepare everything for you so as to relax and enjoy our Greek tasteful buffet while capturing amazing photos of the Aegean sea.

As our Santorini sunset cruise comes close to the final location is sunset time. Our boat sets sails and the sun dives to the sea in the northernmost part of the island. Our boat will stop very close to Oia village where you will have the chance to watch the warm light of the setting sun under the violet sky before the night falls. This is the most unforgettable experience as the Caldera and the village of Oia will turn into gold colour. Your trip  in this sanctuary of romance is going to be in your memories and your hearts forever!

After departing from your last destination, the Santorini Volcano Sunset cruise will finish at the old port of Fira. 

As we make our way back to the port, the party begins! Get ready to dance and celebrate the night with our energetic boat party. Our tour escort will teach you how to dance the Syrtaki, a traditional Greek dance made famous in the movie “Zorba the Greek.” Join in the fun and show off your moves as you dance around the boat’s bar. With music filling the air and the lively atmosphere, this is the perfect way to end your Sailing Sunset Tour with Dinner on board from Caldera’s Boats. Come aboard and let the festivities begin!
