Santorini’s Sunset

Next day we will sail to Ios island which is popular among the youth as one of the top party Greek islands, thanks to the crazy Ios nightlife. You could enjoy the beautiful landscape and the amazing waters of the beach of Mylopotas, where is also located one of the most famous beach bars “Far Out”.

Today we are leaving the island of Ios early in the morning we set sail to the famous island of Santorini. Santorini is the supermodel of the Greek islands, a head-turner whose face is instantly recognisable around the world: multicoloured cliffs soar out of a sea-drowned caldera, topped by drifts of whitewashed buildings. With its reputation for dazzling panoramas, romantic sunsets and volcanic-sand beaches, the island will offer you a unique experience. Sail across the volcano and Thirasia islet and enjoy the sunset from your boat under the caldera of Oia.

Today a really demanding day is waiting for us, as we will sail north to Naxos island and the small port of Kalantos. We could stop in the middle of our way for swimming at the beach Magganari of Ios.

On day 6 we will sail to Agios Prokopios beach of Naxos, one of the most beautiful beaches of Cyclades and to Naxos port. Due to its position, Naxos portoffers a variety of landscapes, which is quite unique for a Cycladic island town. Its proximity to the sea combined with the large number of tourist attractions and amenities make Naxos Town the most preferable place to be on the island. As the ferry approaches the port, “Portara” immediately catches the traveler’s eye. Portara is actually the Greek word for “big door”. It is an unfinished temple dedicated to Apollo. This is where, according to Greek mythology, Dionysus met Ariadne. Portara was built on a small rocky peninsula called Palatia. Portara and Palatia are a favourite afternoon walk for all those who love the view of an unforgettable sunset.

Our last day and before our return to Paroikia, we will visit Naousa on the north of Paros island. Naousa is a small fishing village on the island of Paros, Greece and one of the most picturesque villages in the Cyclades. But anyone who’s ever visited Naoussa, Paros will tell you how hard it is to find a village surrounded by water quite so blue, one that’s held onto its authentic culture for so long. The traditional, whitewashed architecture and quaint stone-paved streets, the natural shrubberies that color the walkways, and the full moon over the fishing dock at night all combine to give Naoussa an otherworldly sort of beauty. Kolybithres beach or Monastiri beach will be our choice for swimming and spending the day under the sun, before we reach the port of Paros in the afternoon full of images that will last forever.
