Santorini Fishing Tours is a booking brand for fishing trips in Santorini. Trips are fulfilled by licensed local captains and vessels contracted by Santorini Fishing Tours. Two boats, three harbours: a 10 m sport-fishing boat for private charters from Ammoudi Bay and Fira old port, and a 12 m traditional wooden boat for the shared trip from Vlychada.

Local captains, one point of contact

All our captains hold Greek professional captain licences, and every boat is licensed and insured for passenger charter. The captains who take you out are licensed local captains who fish here professionally. We do not publish their names, because the boat is confirmed for your date; its name reaches you with the meeting details the day before.

You deal with one team from the first message to the quay. We confirm availability, send the deposit details, answer the practical questions and make sure the day is set up around your group. Trips are fulfilled by licensed local captains and vessels contracted by Santorini Fishing Tours.

Free cancellation up to 48 hours before departure. If our captain cancels because of weather or sea state, you receive a full refund of your deposit or a free rebooking.

The boats

Two boats, two ways to fish

The 10 m sport-fishing boat

A Bertram-type sport-fishing motor boat built in 2023: 10 m long, 4 m wide, up to 30 knots, with a cabin, an air-conditioned saloon, a toilet and a shaded cockpit. Three anglers fish at a time on AVET and TALOS tackle; sonar, fish finder, radar and GPS on board. We take up to 8 guests. It runs the morning and sunset trips and the tuna charter from Ammoudi Bay.

The 12 m traditional wooden boat

A traditional wooden fishing boat (kaiki) with a net winch, with WC, kitchen, shower, towels, life vests, swimming masks, fishing lines and rods. It carries up to 12 guests at a fisherman's pace and is run by licensed local captains. It sails the semi-private traditional trip from Vlychada, mornings and late afternoons.

What we promise

We publish every price, we say plainly who a trip is not for, and we tell you what the month allows before you book. Santorini is not a big-game destination; what it offers is a small boat, a captain who knows the water, swim stops along the caldera and a lunch cooked from what came aboard.

Where we sail from

Three harbours

Ammoudi Bay, the small fishing harbour at the foot of Oia: the private trips. Fira old port, Gialos, the old harbour below Fira, reached by cable car, donkey path or on foot: private trips by arrangement. Vlychada fishing shelter, the small fishing harbour on Santorini's south coast: the traditional trip.

We meet at the quay in Ammoudi Bay, or at Fira old port by arrangement; the traditional trip leaves from Vlychada fishing shelter. The exact spot and the boat's name are sent by email the day before, and on WhatsApp if you gave us a number. How to reach each harbour.
