Overview
An evening sailing. The boat leaves Ammoudi and drops down inside the caldera to the Red Beach and the White Beach for two swim stops, then turns west and anchors beneath Oia for the sunset. As the sun goes down behind Thirassia the houses on the cliffs light up one by one. The route can shift to the sheltered side of the caldera depending on the wind.
