Discover the iconic island of Santorini on this full – day sea excursion from Paros, combining breathtaking landscapes, traditional architecture, and panoramic caldera views. Your day begins with a transfer from designated pick-up points (except Piso Livadi) to Piso Livadi Port, where embarkation takes place at 08:30 AM. Enjoy a scenic cruise across the Aegean Sea before arriving at Santorini’s Athinios Port around 10:45 AM.
Upon arrival, a local transfer will take you to Fira, the island’s capital. Perched high above the caldera, Fira offers spectacular views over the volcanic islets and deep-blue sea. Wander through cobbled alleys lined with whitewashed houses, blue-domed churches, boutiques, and terrace cafés overlooking the cliffs.
You will have approximately 5½ hours of free time to explore at your own pace — stroll through charming streets, enjoy lunch with caldera views, browse art galleries, or simply take in the island’s unique atmosphere.
In the afternoon, transfer back to Athinios Port for departure at 05:00 PM. Arrival at Piso Livadi Port is scheduled around 07:15 PM, followed by transfer back to your designated pick-up point.
Tour Essentials: We recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes, sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen), and bringing water. Light clothing is recommended during summer months.
Notes: This excursion does not include a guided tour. The boat crew provides departure instructions via microphone. The tour includes walking on cobbled streets, uneven surfaces, and slopes, particularly in Fira. Timing may vary slightly depending on sea and local conditions.

Come with us to visit the island of Santorini. Explore the breathtaking landscapes of island. Transfer from your accommodation or a precise pick-up point not far from it to the port of Piso Livadi. The excursion boat departs from there at 8:30 and reaches the port of Santorini called Athinios at around 10:45.
Departure for a tour that gives you the opportunity to admire the traditional architecture of Oia and the picturesque view of Fira. The time of stay on Santorini is about 6h 30min during which you will visit Oia for about 2 to 2.5 hours. There, among others, the Nautical Museum which is housed in an old mansion, is worth a visit. That is because the boats built in Santorini were the first that travelled in the Aegean Sea 7.000 years ago.
After Oia Village, we visit the capital of the island, Fira, for approximately 3 hours. Fira is perched, in a unique way, on the top of the Caldera cliffs. There, you can visit the Spiritual Center at the Venetian Gyzi Palace, in the center of the Catholic Quarter, where cultural events such as painting exhibitions and theatrical performances take place. There is also a permanent exhibition with old maps and documents relating to Santorini and the rest of the Cyclades. Interesting will be the visit to the Archaeological Museum, which contains many findings that represent the island’s long history, mainly vases and figurines of Cycladic civilization. Additionally, you will see the fresques of the excavation of Akrotiri of Santorini. There is also plenty of time to scroll around and admire the magical view over the Caldera and the volcano. At 17:15 departure back to Paros and at 19:30 you will arrive at Piso Livadi port. Transfer to your hotel or a precise pick-up point not far from it.
