Santorini: Catamaran Tour with BBQ Dinner, Drinks, and Music

4.6 (7,314 verified reviews)

Before you book

  • As of early October 2026, Red Beach is closed to visitors: access has been banned since 2013 because of rockfalls (by mayoral decision since 2017), and more rock fell in February 2025. The catamaran stops offshore, as it does at every beach on the route, because it cannot moor at the beaches; nobody lands.
  • Hotel pickup and drop-off are included, with pickups starting about 1.5 hours before departure. If you make your own way, the meeting point is the red Sunset Oia catamaran at Ammoudi port, below Oia, by 2:15 PM at the latest.
  • Also as of early October 2026, under a decision in force until 31 March 2027, Ammoudi village and the footpath down from Oia are open, the road to Ammoudi is closed to vehicles apart from a few exceptions, and the footpath from Ammoudi to Cape Agios Nikolaos is closed.
  • Not included: beer and towels. At most 50 to 55 guests; not suitable for wheelchair users. Bring warm clothes on a sunset sailing, and the route can change without notice in bad weather.
  • Cancellation, as listed: “Cancel up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund.”
