Private - Morning cruise (Volcanic
islands – Hot springs – Thirasia – Oia )
Cruise Details:
At 09:45 A.M. you are welcomed
aboard our 65 feet schooner, the Adonis, by Captain Christos Vlachos and his
crew.
After a safety-briefing, you can
enjoy the marvels Santorini is known for across the globe.
We always suggest a route, based on
our knowledge of the island and weather conditions; of course, we will fine
tune the itinerary to your needs and preferences.
For this morning cruise we suggest
the following:
After departure from Athinios port
(09:45 A.M.), we will make our way to the hot springs, located at the Nea
Kameni volcano.
Arrival at the hot spring will be at
around 10:15 A.M and we will have until 11:00 A.M. to enjoy these hydrothermal
sulphurous springs, praised for the benefits they provide for our skin. Keep in
mind that they stain light colored bathing suits.
Important to note is that this experience is only for strong swimmers, because
of the shallowness of the springs we cannot enter by boat. This means that upon
arrival we need to swim from the boat until the shallow springs.
At 11:00 A.M., we depart and we will
cruise to the island Thirassia and at 11:45 A.M. approx. we should have reach
the picturesque bay of Korfos. This is where you can enjoy Thirassia’s crystal
clear waters, and in the meanwhile we will serve lunch.
We depart at 12:45 P.M., cross over
to the Northern tip of Santorini, where we find Oia (pronounced “ia”) on the
cliffs. Seen from the sea, this offers undoubtedly one of the most impressive
sights Santorini has to offer.
From here then we take advantage of
the prevailing Northern winds and sail back Southwards to Athinios port, where
transfer will be arranged for a safe drive back to your hotel. We are scheduled
to return at Athinios port at approx. 14:15 P.M.
