Caldera Sunset Cruise Route

The cruise starts from Vlychada beach, on the southern side of Santorini. From there, the boat sails along the southern coastline of the island, offering views of Santorini’s lunar-like volcanic scenery and impressive coastal formations.

The route includes the famous Red Beach, where guests can swim in crystalline waters or use the snorkeling gear provided to explore the seabed, depending on weather and sea conditions.

The cruise continues past White Beach, Black Mountain and the Venetian Lighthouse south of the Caldera. These areas are known for their dramatic volcanic cliffs, deep blue waters and beautiful views from the sea.

Swimming stops always depend on weather and sea conditions, as the crew chooses the safest and most comfortable locations for the day.
