Sunset on board in the Caldera of Santorini?
Enjoy the world famous sunset aboard a sailboat of 18th century and experience some of the magic of that beautiful and adventurous era. Our yacht is an exact replica of a schooner and a brigantine. These kinds of sailing boats were used during the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century, an era that has been characterized as the "Golden Age of Sails". This charter sailing boat has been built out of love for that era - when the sails reigned the seas and which was a time that has been praised by famous authors such as Jules Verne, Jack London and Herman Melville.

 

 

Departing from the Old port of Fira, our boat stops on the little dock of the famous Volcano, where we will walk towards the top of the island. While walking, our experienced guide talks about the intense volcanic activity of the last 3000 years! We will step on the newest volcanic island of Eastern Mediterranean and we will see large pieces of magma. The crater still seems active, as hot fumes are released in many points!

Tip: Don't miss to take a picture of the Caldera, while you are on the volcano; the view is panoramic!

Leaving the volcano, our Santorini sailing boat heads for the "Hot Springs" and their thermal sulfurous waters, where you can let yourself indulge in the natural-warm and soothing sea. During the remainder of our voyage, our Santorini sailing boat docks close to Thirassia, the second largest of the complex of islands forming the caldera, giving you the opportunity to escape into its crystal clear and refreshing blue waters. In the meantime the crew prepares a delicious full BBQ dinner and you’ll also enjoy the renowned white local wine. 

Next we depart for the northern tip of Santorini and the town of Oia with its two small fisherman ports Ammoudi and Armeni. From our Santorini sailing boat we have a unique vantage point for viewing and photographing the lovely traditional settlement of Oia. Here you can relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery. At this point we set sails and head back to Fira enjoying live saxophone music as the sun magically sets into the sea...Finally, we return in the old port of Fira after sunset.
