One of the most beautiful beaches of the island. Its distinct red coloration is caused by the rich in minerals and iron soil. Stop to take some photos. We do not drop you off. You do not stop for swimming.
White Beach, which is only accessible by boat, is a marvel to look at. We do not stop for swimming or drop you off.

Sail below the Indian Rocks near the caves and rock formations, characteristic to the Aegean landscape.
Stop at the hot springs for a swim session at the sulfurous waters that offer a natural spa. We do not drop you off, you need to swim to reach the springs.

The crew of the Caldera catamaran was fun and friendly and this was a great family activity. The meal prepared on board was fresh and delicious (and better than expected). It was a great afternoon in Santorini.
The scenery is amazing, the crew are really friendly and knowledgeable and the bbq might not look like much but it is very tasty and enough for everyone.
The greatest thing with this trip is the people. Everyone from the driver who drive us to the cruise to the folks who worked and showed us around were professional, friendly and very helpful if we had any questions or needed anything.. The weather was fine and we had a blast
Thanya and Alex were amazing! Food was delicious. Sunset views were unmatched. It was simple and easy process to get from the hotel to the ship and back. It was well worth it.
It was great and the staff was awesome. The food was delicious and they were very informative on what we were seeing. The sunset was perfect
Super Mario and Elena were absolutely amazing they made this trip so much fun and we felt so safe with them❤️
If you visit Santorini, the sunset tour is a must. Fabulous hospitality, wonderful dinner, fun dancing and music on the return trip and the sunset was absolutely spectacular.
We were told to wait at a specific meeting point, but there was nobody there to meet us. We eventually had to ask someone for help, but they ignored us because we weren't part of their group. For a moment, I genuinely thought we were going to be left behind. I wouldn't recommend this experience. The cruise itself wasn't anything special either, it was just okay.
10/10 safe, good vibes, good food, good music, and views. We took the bonita boat and the tour guides were very nice
Our cruise was on the Bonita. The crew was great - informative and fun. The sites we visited and saw from the boat were beautiful and interesting. The food was great and they kept the wine flowing. I’d definitely recommend this excursion to a friend.
