Santorini Sailing Center (couple trip)
How Couple-Friendly is Santorini Sailing Center?
What makes it 93% Couple-Friendly: Sunset sailing, soft music, open bar and the option of a private charter make this one of Santorini’s most romantic outings, though semi-private boats still force you to share deck space.
