The afternoon
The caldera in its last light
Always five hours. The departure time is set for your date so that the trip ends a little after sunset; we confirm it with your booking. The same route as the morning trip, with swim stops while the light allows, and the sunset watched from the water on the way back to Ammoudi. Return after sunset.
- Depart Ammoudi Bay below Oia
We meet at the quay at the time confirmed for your date. Trolling and jigging between stops; the captain picks the rods for the day's conditions.
- Thirasia island and Tripiti Cape, the Heart Rock
- Elephant Rocks at the southern tip of Thirasia
- White Island beach and sea caves
- Volcanic islands and hot springs
- Nea Kameni cove for swimming and snorkelling
- Sunset along the caldera cliffs and back to Ammoudi
Everything the morning trip includes
Fishing gear and bait, snorkelling equipment, towels, bottled water and soft drinks, coffee and tea, beer and local wine, fresh snacks, and your catch grilled on board: the full list is on the morning trip page. Beer and wine are included on board; the captain may limit alcohol for safety, and alcohol is for guests aged 18 and over.
Not included: transfers to and from the port. Our transfer partner SantoriniTaxi.com can arrange a fixed-price ride.

Same boat, same captain, later light
The afternoon runs on the same 10 m sport-fishing boat as the morning trip, with a shaded cockpit and an air-conditioned saloon for the warm hours, the same gear and the same species in season; by arrangement it can leave from Fira old port instead of Ammoudi. You keep what you catch. The crew cook it on board when time allows; otherwise a taverna at the port will cook it for you for a small charge.

Before you book
Who it suits
Couples and small groups who want the caldera at its warmest hour, and anyone who would rather not start early. Children of all ages are welcome; life jackets are on board for all guests, including children. Non-swimmers are welcome.
Who should pick another trip
Prefer to fish in the morning light? Take the morning trip; for a full offshore day there is the deep-sea tuna charter. Groups larger than eight: see the semi-private traditional trip. We advise pregnant guests not to join sport-fishing trips because of sea conditions.
Weather and meeting point
If our captain cancels because of weather or sea state, you receive a full refund of your deposit or a free rebooking. We meet at the quay in Ammoudi Bay. The exact spot and the boat's name are sent by email the day before, and on WhatsApp if you gave us a number.
Questions about the sunset trip
What time does the sunset fishing trip start?
It depends on the month. The trip always lasts five hours and we set the departure for your date so that it ends a little after sunset: later in June and July, earlier in the spring and autumn months. We confirm the time with your booking.
Is the route the same as the morning trip?
Yes. You follow the same stops along Thirasia, White Island, the volcanic islands and Nea Kameni, with swim stops while the light allows, then cruise the caldera cliffs back to Ammoudi after sunset.
Do we really see the sunset from the boat?
Yes. Because the start is set for your date, the five hours end a little after the sun has gone down, whatever the month, at no extra cost.
Can we book a shorter afternoon charter?
Yes. A three-hour afternoon charter departs at 15:00 and costs €700 for up to four guests; it covers fewer stops, and the captain will tell you whether sunset fits the hours you book.
How is the afternoon different from the morning trip?
Same boat, captain, gear, food and price. The difference is the light: the caldera turns gold in the last hours and you return after sunset.
