4.Romantic Sunset Catamaran Caldera Cruise incl. Meal & Drinks

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 328 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $114

Cruise from Santorini’s coast to Red Beach, White Beach, the volcano hot springs, and Oia’s sunset. You’ll swim or snorkel, eat Greek appetizers and barbecue, and enjoy wine, beer, ouzo, and soft drinks. Pickup is available, and the boat carries up to 16 people, weather permitting.

“Ok, given the choice I would not do this trip again. Major confusion about the pick up location. Then 3 buses arrived all together- it was very confusing to figure out who was collecting who, and they were 15 minutes late. The food was ok but not great. The “ hot springs “ !!! Very over rated, as were the red and white beaches. And eventually not even a sunset ( and yes - I know that’s pot luck) At the end of the cruise, you then had to climb out of the catamaran and into a little row boat to get to shore. Overall disappointing”
