Island Tour description
Your amazing tour will start with a visit
to Oia village, the most picturesque and famous place on the island. Wander in
the charming narrow paths, admire the blue-domed chapels and the traditional
white-washed houses built-in niches in the rock. Continue to Firostefani, a
village next to the capital of Fira that offers an amazing view of the volcano
and the caldera. Enjoy the view and take the famous picture of the Blue dome
church with the volcano in the background, the one has been depicted in so many
images of the island. Pass by the old capital of Pyrgos village and head up to
Prophet Elias monastery, the highest point of the island. From this vantage
point, you can admire an exclusive view of the entire island and those around
and take striking photographs. It’s now time to visit Santo winery, the biggest
winery on the island, located on the west side. Words cannot describe the
stunning view from this winery. Take some beautiful pictures, shop at the
winery market or enjoy a glass of wine and a world-class view. Finally, make a
stop at Vlychada black beach and admire the volcanic landscape of this unique
black sandy beach. Your island tour will finish at Vlychada port so you can
start your cruise!
Sunset Sailing Cruise
Your sailing cruise will start with a stop
at the Volcanic Red beach for swimming and snorkeling for approximately 30
minutes. The second stop will be the White beach and Mesa Pigadia for
approximately 60 minutes where you can relax, swim or snorkel while we are
preparing your BBQ on board. We continue sailing in the Aegean blue waters
moving across the Indian Rock & Venetian Lighthouse with cinematic
landscapes ideal for photography and video. Next stop will be the Volcano and
the Hot Springs for approximately 30 minutes so you can enjoy a swim in the
therapeutic waters. On the way back, soak up the dramatic scenery of the
Caldera rim until we reach Ammoudi bay, passing by the isles of St. Nicolas and
St. Eftapedes. On our final stop you will be enchanted by the stunning Oia
sunset as you watch the sun dip into the Aegean sea.
