Ideas for Santorini

Boating in Santorini

Santorini's boating centres on the caldera, a flooded volcanic crater ringed by high cliffs with villages along the rim. A typical day circles the volcanic islets in the middle, stops at beaches on the south coast and ends off Oia to watch the sunset from the water.

Where to go by boat

  • Nea Kameni

    Young volcanic island in the caldera, with a walk up to the crater.

  • Palea Kameni hot springs

    Swim into a bay of warm, iron-tinted water.

  • Red Beach

    Beach below red volcanic cliffs, easy to view from the sea.

  • Thirassia

    Quiet island on the western side of the caldera.

Tip: The caldera is very deep, so anchoring is difficult in many places; use the moorings and harbours on offer, and expect the summer meltemi to make the water outside the caldera rough.
