    Our boat, Sunset Naxos,...

    Our boat, Sunset Naxos, was beautiful and our crew, Kostas, Rafaela & George, were great. And the dinner was delicious.

    Great way to see the sunset!

    This was a great tour. They stopped at two places the first one was a 90 minute stop where we also had lunch. The lunch was really good. The next stop was 30 minutes. It was called Hot Springs on the itinerary, but the water is not really hot, you are still in the sea. The crew was super friendly. Was really hard to hear them at times so I wasn’t able to get all of the information regarding any safety instructions or the sites at times. However, I would still highly recommend this excursion.

    Great time for my 50th

    We had a lovely afternoon sail, the swim stops were lush and food was a lovely bit of Greece. Loved the sunset in Oia well worth the money Totally recommend

    Sailing away into the sunset

    Pick up was very clear. We had about an hour van ride from Oia to the catamaran as we picked up others. I enjoyed this though, as we got to see Kamari and other parts of Santorini that we hadn't seen. Everyone takes shoes off, no matter what you're wearing. The boat was full, but not overcrowded. It was beautiful, sailing along. Some people got in the water at the stops. The food, which was prepared on board, was really tasty. We saw the gorgeous sunset and were surprised that we disembarked in Oia, not where we started from. I would give it a 9.9 out of 10!

    Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Santorini.

    How much does Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer cost?

    +

    Prices start at $126 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Santorini usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Santorini is not rushed.

    Is Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 89 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 1,348 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Santorini, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer?

    +

    Around 472 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Santorini can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Santorini and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Santorini within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Santorini?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Santorini experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Santorini Tailor Made - Choice of the Guest!, Half Day Premium Catamaran Cruise in Santorini including Oia, Private Tailor-Made Santorini Land Tour with a Local Driver. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Santorini?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Santorini?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer?

    +

    Included: Blanket (to be returned to the crew); Floating devices; Towels (to be returned to the crew); Snorkeling equipment; and Drinks (soft drinks, white Santorinian wine, beer). Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 366 listed pickup locations in and around Santorini. Be ready about 90 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer offered in?

    +

    +

    Is Santorini Sunset Luxury Sailing Catamaran Cruise with BBQ, drinks, transfer wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
