Amazing Catamaran Sunset Cruise
We had an absolutely fantastic catamaran day cruise and couldn’t recommend the experience highly enough! Captain Nick, skipper Tad and our hostess Tina were the ultimate dream team. From the very beginning, they made everyone feel completely at ease, clearly explaining the plan for the day and taking us through all the necessary safety information before setting off. Throughout the cruise, we were able to relax and enjoy the whole catamaran, stopping at three beautiful spots to swim in the Aegean Sea. Along the way, the team also shared interesting information about Santorini’s coastline, beaches and history, which made the experience even more memorable. The food on board was delicious, the atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable with great music, and watching the Santorini sunset from the catamaran was the perfect cherry on top, a moment from our honeymoon that will stay with us for a lifetime. A huge thank you to Captain Nick, Tad and Tina for making the day so special. We would highly recommend a catamaran trip with Santorini Sailing Centre, you won’t be disappointed!

Excellent cruise and fabulous food
We opted for the sunset cruise and it was spectacular. The crew and captain Nick, Mario and Tina) were amazing. Food was excellent and plenty of drink choices. Also accommodated gluten allergy. Swimming stops were great and for good amounts of time. The bbq fish was just divine - and the setting next to the volcano made it even more special. Thank yo Nick, Mario and Tina!😊

Brilliant day cruise
There are lots of options for day cruises so it was difficult to choose between them but we were so happy we chose Renieris! From the moment we arrived at the boat the crew were exceptional in going out of their way to give us the best experience. We were given lost of background about the island and each stop we made, our glasses were always topped up and the crew were always offering to take photos. The boat was clean and well maintained and the grilled fish for lunch was absolutely delicious. Special shout out to Tina, Mike and George - thank you for making our day so memorable!
