Excellent day with Captain Ted himself!

Absolutely beautiful setting and the crew (with Captain Ted himself) were wonderful! Great food, good drinks, excellent day! Hit all the great Waterfront sites around the Caldera, including fun swims and incredible views. Highly recommended!

The Only Way to Truly See Santorini

My husband and I went sailing with Captain Ted himself 18 years ago. We brought our teenage sons to Greece with us this time and wanted them to have the experience. We were so happy to see that Captain Ted is still operating and thriving. We did a private tour on the Dream Catcher. Transfers were seamless. Our crew, Adonis, Lou and Victoria, were very nice. Lou gave us great information about the island and was very personable. The cruise was smooth and the food was great. We liked the swimming spots. The island seems more beautiful than before. A great way to spend a day in Santorini.

Memorable Santorini Sail

A wonderful and fun morning/afternoon sailing the caldera with a lovely crew! Lu, Amelia and the captain went above and beyond making sure everyone onboard was comfortable, well fed and having a great time. Lunch and drinks was fresh, delicious, and plentiful. The catamaran was super spacious and I never felt crowded. I highly recommend Santorini Sailing and would definitely book this again if/when I return to Santorini. Thank you for a most memorable and excellent experience!

A must-do.

We had a pleasant time, enjoying the wind to set the sails. Thank you to Amelia for her explanations in French 😜. This outing allowed us to see the beaches that are inaccessible by land. Good experience, I recommend it. The only point to review is our driver on the way back to our hotel, who spent the entire trip on his phone while driving 😳😠.

See Santorini from the Water!

Today’s adventure was in the company of Captain Billy, Lou & Victoria. They were skillful sailors, and they were attentive, kind & friendly. I appreciated that they put the sails up & sailed the catamaran for most of the trip. I did not see many other catamarans out on the water using their sails. There were several opportunities to swim for those interested in dipping. They had floatation devices for those who needed them. The crew was knowledgeable about the history of Santorini and geology we sailed past. The lunch was absolutely delicious. There were 6 separate dishes prepared. A wide variety was offered. The experience was well orchestrated and I felt very safe. It was a magical experience. I highly recommend Santorini Sailing. If you can get on a boat with this particular crew, you will be amazed.
