Caldera Cruise & Volcano Visit, Santorini
Take a family sailing trip along Santorini's caldera on a brigantine, learning about volcanoes and bathing in hot springs
Overview
Your adventure starts at the port of Athinios. Here, you'll board an authentic Brigantine, a traditional wooden boat of the sort made in the Mediterranean for centuries, of almost 100 feet (28-m) long. You will then begin your trip around the coastline of Santorini's stunning caldera.
You will get to take a break at a natural hot spring, dock near Thirassia, the second-largest island within the caldera, where you will get to go swimming in the sea while your crew prepares a traditional Greek BBQ buffet.
The cruise stops as well on the northern tip of Santorini, near the charming village of Oia. Savor the town's two ports, Ammoudi and Armeni and see these picturesque harbors from the unique vantage point of your vessel. As you return towards Athinios port, gaze at the beautiful sunset over the Aegean Sea.
Please bear in mind that the water in the Hot Springs contains sulfur and iron that leaves stains. It is recommended to avoid wearing light-colored bathing suits.
To participate in all activities of this tour, swimming knowledge is required.
