Santorini Catamaran Cruise with Swimming, Snorkelling and BBQ

A driver will pick you up by minibus from your hotel or the nearest access point and take you to Ammoudi or Athinios port, where the crew will welcome you on board. Find a comfortable spot on the deck and take your drink from the open bar. There is a sitting area under the canopy and a spacious open area for sunbathing. This open-style catamaran offers a 360º view.
The first stop for swimming is next to the volcano, in the area of the hot springs. Observe the mysterious lava formations and the total black colour of the rocks. Before the second stop, you will pass the Old Lighthouse, Indian Rock, and the Black Mountain.
The second stop is in the area of Red Beach for photos, swimming, and snorkelling. We visit spots that are not reachable by car.
The third stop is in the area of White Beach, full of limestone, for more swimming and snorkelling with the onboard equipment. It is also time for your meal. Taste delicious BBQ dishes and Greek appetizers, such as stuffed vine leaves and salads, prepared on the spot by the friendly hostess.
Disembark at Ammoudi or Athinios port, the most picturesque fisherman's port in Santorini. A driver will take you back to the original meeting point.

Passengers have to remove their shoes before embarkation.
Catamarans and yachts keep a distance of 50 m from the warm sulfuric water of Hot Springs Bay. The temperature in the Hot Springs area is up to 4°C warmer than the open water. Guests swim securely close to the volcano; dark-coloured swimwear is recommended.
All yachts and boats in Greece cannot moor directly on the beach. The best points for swimming and snorkelling, as close to the beach as possible, have been selected.
