5.Santorini Luxury Catamaran Sunset Cruise with BBQ, Drink and Transfer

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 310 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $157

Spend about five hours aboard Santorini’s Ipanema 58, a spacious catamaran limited to 20 passengers. Swim near the hot springs, snorkel by Red and White Beaches, eat a Greek barbecue, and watch sunset from the water with an English-speaking crew.

“Amazing experience! I booked the diamond package so it was a smaller group, we all had plenty of space to spread out but also to chat and come together when we wanted to. The staff were just amazing and the range of drinks and food on board were great! The sunset was something else, a moment I will never forget! Thanks so much Sunset Oia, I would definitely recommend them for a lovely, luxury catamaran cruise!”
