From start to finish this was a trip that we will always remember and cherish, Steve greeted us and once the necessary paperwork was sorted, he got us into the boat for a demonstration of the safety features and how to safely operate the boat. Once we were comfortable off we went to explore the Caldera. We visited red beach & white beach for swim stops then headed to the hot springs for another dip. The view of Oia is amazing from the sea as is Ammoudi bay just a short hop around the coast. Watching the sunset from our own little boat amongst all the huge touristy catamarans gave it that extra special feel. Thank you Steve & everyone at Sea4all for an experience we will never forget.

We had such an amazing time. The owners met us at the rental with hot fresh home brewed espresso. They gave us the perfect description of where to go and what to do while we were on the boat. They told us the perfect place to watch the sunset. We opted for the luxury rental and it was perfect for 4 adults with coolers, drinks and food. The owner took us out on the water to make sure we were confrontable navigating and driving the boat. As well as being a USCC certified captain and a bunch of "Boaties" ( You don't need to have much boating experience for this awesome cruise) we had an amazing time

We wanted a private trip without the crowds, and it was perfect. Great team who were very helpful, and provided us a nice new boat that was ideal for our day exploring the coast.

Rent a boat for a whole day; the boat was in very good condition, very clean, with cooler bag and plenty of fresh water. In addition it was left there until sunset which we could enjoy from the sea.

Amazing service, boats in great condition. We had a magic day at the hot springs. Highly recommended. Owner helped with launching and returning the boat which helped a lot due to unusually rough conditions on the day. Calm conditions inside the 'crater".
Stunning sunset!

We had a great day out on our own boat. The guys are Sea4 all were very attentive giving us a map, snorkels and water for the day. We found a few great spots for snorkelling and watched the sunset, the best one we've ever seen. So worth doing this if you're in Santorini.
