6. Private Sailing & Wine Tasting on a Sailboat with Sommelier
Begin your tour with a pickup from your hotel or the closest accessible point, and set a day of sailing while tasting Santorini's most excellent wines chosen and served by your certified wine guide.
Drive to the island's south to get onboard and get prepared for our private 5-hour cruise. Pass by the famous Red beach, where you will briefly make a stop to take some pictures of this unique, beautiful and colorful volcanic landscape from the water. Then, pass by the beautiful and only accessible by boat white beach, a stunning creation of the massive volcanic eruptions.
On our way you will be able to witness the naturally sculpted on a black rock Indian’s face, before we enter the caldera of Santorini where the picturesque lighthouse is on the top of the cliff on the right. On the left, witness the remaining of an eruption, an island consisting of pumice, the island of Aspronisi.
This is the time where our sailboat passes between the two volcanoes (Palaia & Nea Kameni) and approaches the sulfuric warm water of the hot springs (warm springs).
Finally you can swim at the calm and crystal clear waters of Thirassia island and enjoy your tasteful meal cooked on board for you having the chance to marvel at the eastward view of the caldera. This will be the time to witness the wonderful Santorini sunset on board.
Most of the wine tasting will take place in Thirassia, for safety reasons, however you will have already enjoyed our first 2 wines until we get there. The tasting includes dry whites, a rose, a dry red & the famous desert Santorini wine (Vinsanto)
Opt for sunset cruise to marvel the sunset on board. After the beautiful sunset, we will head back to the Marina of Vlychada, where your transfer will be waiting for you to drive you back to the same spot you were picked up.
