Itinerary for the Santorini Sea Dream Shared Cruise:

First Stop (just for taking pictures): Red Beach. The mesmerizing Red Beach with its unique colours and its wild cliff beauty.

Sailing Experience and Sightseeing: We will make a 5-minute stop at White Beach, which is bright and wild, covered with limestone, just for taking pictures.

Next we sail to Mesa Pigadia, which offers the first opportunity for swimming; we will stay for 20 minutes.

Then we sail by the Indian Rock (an impressive and massive rock formation), the impressive Black Mountain and the Venetian Lighthouse (the 125-year-old Venetian Lighthouse of Akrotiri)

We will make our second stop at the volcanic hot springs. Volcanic waters have healing properties. The area is brimming with breathtaking caves and stunning volcanic beaches. Thereafter, we’ll make our way to a sheltered area (adapting to weather conditions), where you will have another opportunity to swim, and we will get some time to prepare your lunch. After the springs, and once we have enjoyed our meal on board, we will open the sails (if the weather permits it) and return to the port of departure, where we conclude our excursion and where transfer will be arranged.
