Exclusive day trip to Santorini

Santorini attracts visitors since it has the reputation as the most romantic place on Earth. Thus, many couples arrive on the island to hold their wedding ceremonies. Renting a yacht is a great way to explore the island. Daneri Yachts is the leading boat rental Santorini agency in the region. We invite you to dive into its magical atmosphere for 1 day.

Our catamaran accommodates up to 8 guests and 2 crew members. We guarantee comfortable accommodation for all guests. The departure time of the catamaran from Heraklion to Santorini is 10-11 p.m. If necessary, we will arrange a transfer from any region of Crete. Boat hire includes fuel, crew, soft drinks, white wine, beer, welcome cheese plate and fruits, and breakfast on board.

We have prepared 3 possible sea excursions on our yachts.

First cruise

  1. Start from the volcano on Nea Kameni, Santorini’s business card. Stunning views open from here, so guests can admire them from the board of a boat from Heraklion to Santorini. Moreover, a picturesque landscape is an excellent background for amazing photos.
  2. Then, we sail to the red, white, or black beach. Clients can choose any option, depending on a sand color or privacy. There are fully equipped beaches with various amenities, children’s zones, diving centers, shops, and cafes. Still, at the same time, there are quiet, non-touristic locations, where you can feel nature and enjoy Greek flavors in fishermen’s taverns.

Note that lunch and dinner are not included in the price of the boat trip from Heraklion to Santorini. Captain can recommend nearby places, where you can have a good-quality meal.

Second cruise

  1. A day trip to Santorini starts from Vlychada port. We come with the catamaran there, while guests are transferred on minivans. You will visit the Venetian fortress and the Orthodox Church of St. Sozont in Oia. Fira is a pearl of our boat trip from Crete to Santorini. A combination of azure waters and snow-white houses here are calling for a shot. Scenic views and interesting stories await you.
  2. In the evening, we admire a picturesque sunset on a yacht. This is the perfect moment to tell your soul mate about your love. Or make a proposal. On board our private boat from Crete to Santorini, we always have cooled champagne bottles for such occasions.

Note that this program also does not include meals. Try traditional dishes in restaurants with panoramic views of the Aegean Sea. Taste delicious authentic wine: «Vinsanto» with notes of citrus fruits, figs, and coffee, dry «Assyrtiko» or fortified «Nychteri».

Third cruise

It’s a cruise along the coast. You can choose your own route and places to drop the anchor or let us plan a Heraklion to Santorini day trip for you.

Lunch and dinner are included in this option. We cook dishes of Mediterranean cuisine. Fresh ingredients are purchased and delivered from Cretan farmers. If you want a special menu, tell us about it in advance, and our cooks will prepare your favorite food.

At about 21.00, we set off for the return journey. Our crew is dedicated to making your voyage unforgettable and exciting. Feel free to contact us if you want to hire a boat Santorini.
