Overview

Experience Santorini's Caldera allure on a seamless journey fusing nature and culture. Begin at Athinios Port, where the elegant King Thiras boat awaits. While the ship occasionally reaches its maximum capacity, rest assured that the allure of the experience more than justifies the voyage. Nea Kameni's volcanic crater unveils untamed power; return to the boat for the next phase. Approach Palaia Kameni for a unique Hot Springs dip, harmonizing relaxation with adventure for 15-30 minutes. Thirassia Island offers a tranquil escape, two hours to enjoy beaches, seaside dining, or exploring the Village of Manolas with vibrant houses.

The homeward journey reveals Oia's beauty, capturing cliffs and scenery. A bus then takes you back to your hotel. This expedition guarantees rugged landscapes, white architecture, warm Aegean waters, and a profound connection to Santorini's history. Embrace an extraordinary experience that transcends the ordinary, promising treasured memories.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Full Day Santorini Caldera Cruise?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
