I want to begin by saying that my family and I did not actually go on this cruise but I do want to explain the experience that we had encountered in dealing with this vendor. About 18 hours prior to our scheduled cruise, my daughter had to be taken to an emergency medical clinic in Santorini where she had to have the first of two surgical procedures ( the second one taking place the following morning at the time of the scheduled excursion). I notified this vendor of our circumstances, cancelled the booking, and offered to provide detailed medical documentation in the event that they would be willing to offer us a refund. They immediately responded and said that, because we were less than 24 hours out from the cruise, a refund would not be possible. Although we weren't happy about it, we completely understood their decision.
The thing that we couldn't understand, however, is why then then proceeded to harrass us with numerous texts, emails and phone calls asking us to confirm the fact that we were okay with not getting a refund. This was all being done while we were dealing with a medical complication in a foreign country which served to add stress to an already complicated situation. When I responded by telling them that I plan to post a review warning other potential clients of their unprofessional behavior, they accused me of threatening them in order to circumvent their process and obtain a refund.
While I fully understand the fact that this is a business that functions within certain rules, having worked in a customer service driven industry for over thirty years, I also understand the value of the human factor. My family travels often and extensively and I can honestly say that the insensitivity and unprofessional behavior that we experienced from this particular vendor is not something that we have previously witnessed.
I have been in contact with Viator regarding this vendor and they could not have been more supportive, caring or professional. We will continue to use them without an ounce of hesitation whenever we travel in the future. I wish the same could be said about Spiridakos Sailing Cruises.

Great experience. We were...
Great experience. We were debating between a private (just us 2) and this and we're glad we went with this for the money.

The is an amazing experience. The views of the caldera looking from the sea up are indescribable. The crew was attentive, informative and helpful. The food and drinks were great and plentiful. Definitely worth the time and money.

Fantastic day out on the water
Fantastic day out on the water: Captain Stavros, Stefanos and the rest of the crew were very attentive, food and drinks were plentiful and the spots we stopped at for swimming and snorkeling were amazing. The captain also shared a lot of insight on the island history and geology as well as recommendations on great beaches to visit on our own.

Happy Day on Happy Days Catamaran
Although the bus ride to the port and then getting organized to board the catamaran was a little hectic ….. this trip still gets 5 *****. First the crew…. Amazing professional and fun!!!! The views and the places we stopped to swim….. exceptional!! The sunset in Oia beyond expectations! The guest on board with us so much fun! I highly recommend this trip to anyone who comes to Santorini. Our catamaran’s name was HAPPY DAYS! It totally lived up to its name.

Amazing day
What an amazing day picked up from our hotel (they did change the time the night before from 9.40 to 9am not sure why as we were hanging about for the boat)
When we got on the boat it was amazing.
The crew were amazing really informative about the island we had 5 swim stops which were amazing and a fabulous lunch.
Drinks were included and after the last swim stop you could have a couple of cocktails
We thought it was well worth the €320 for 2 people and would highly recommend

Best Sunset Cruise/Crew/Ship in Santorini
A Sunset Cruise I’ll Never Forget 🌅✨⛵
There are experiences you hope will be beautiful, and then there are experiences that feel like they were pulled straight out of a storybook. My sunset cruise in Santorini with Spiridakos Overseas was exactly that—and honestly, I could not have asked for a more magical experience from beginning to end.
From the very first contact to the moment we stepped off the yacht, Giorgos was an absolute ROCKSTAR! ⭐ His attention to detail, communication, professionalism, and genuine care made me feel like a queen on my own private, personally chartered yacht. Every little detail was handled with such thoughtfulness, and I always felt cared for and valued.
Our captain, Ilias, made the evening even more special. He sailed us through the breathtaking waters of Santorini with such confidence and calmness, always keeping us safe while wearing the biggest smile. Watching the sun melt into the Aegean Sea while cruising through that incredible scenery was pure BLISS. 🌅💙
And the crew—Panos and Jawel—were absolutely phenomenal! They worked together seamlessly and were constantly anticipating our needs. From delicious food (cooked onboard) and drinks to fresh towels, pictures, snorkeling gear, and making sure we were comfortable at every moment, they truly went above and beyond. Their warmth and hospitality made the entire experience feel effortless.
The whole evening felt less like a tour and more like stepping into a dream. ✨ The views, the sunset, the yacht, the food, the laughter, the service, and most importantly, the people made this an experience I will carry with me forever.
Giorgos, Ilias, Panos, and Jewal—you made me feel like royalty and created memories that are truly priceless. ❤️
If you are coming to Santorini and want more than just a sunset cruise—if you want an experience, a memory, and a story you will tell for years to come—BOOK WITH SPIRIDAKOS OVERSEAS.
From start to finish, it was pure magic. 🌅👑⛵💙
10/10 doesn’t even begin to describe it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Amazing sail on Summer!
Easy booking process through WhatsApp directly with Operator. Complimentary, on time pick up from our hotel and drop off afterwards. We sailed on Summer with top notch crew. Food was absolutely delicious and the sights were incredible! Hands down, the best day of our vacation in Santorini so far!

We had a really lovely...
We had a really lovely sunset cruise around Santorini. The catamaran was very nice and spacious -- about 20 passengers total - a little bit crowded feeling at first, but then everyone spread out and found their own spaces. Most of the other catamarans we passed looked to have about the same number of people. The crew was fantastic and the dinner was delicious. We had multiple stops for swimming (water a little chilly) and got to see the beautiful sunset. We would recommend a light jacket or longsleeves for the ride back to port after the sun goes down. It was perfect for our young teens. The transport to and from the cruise was a bit chaotic and involved some patient waiting, but all in all, we had a wonderful time!

Great Experience!
The whole experience was great! The shuttle to the port was easy, the time to swim at three different locations was great, the food was delicious, and the crew was very friendly and helpful! We would definitely do this again!
