Details

Discover Santorini's hotspots thanks to our amazing boat trip to the volcano, including a visit to the hot springs. Our trip will start from the old port of Fira and once we all embarked on our antique vessel, we will head to our first destination. After 20 minutes of sailing, we will reach the volcano. There, you will have the possibility to be guided to its ridge and learn about its history and its geology. After a 1.5-hour tour, you will go back on our boat and we will sail to Palea Kameni. Once we reached the island, we will enjoy a 30 minutes swimming stop to enjoy Agios Nicholaos beach. The water there is full of minerals such as sulfur or iron. It makes the water very good for the skin, arthritis, rheumatism, and other physical pain. On our way back to the old port of Fira, you will be able to enjoy a panoramic view on the coasts of Nea Kameni, the volcano island.

Highlights - Traditional wooden boats - Visit to the Volcano - Swimming stop at the Hot Springs of Agios Nicholaos’ beach - Bilingual guide: English and Greek

Departure & Return We meet 45 minutes before the booked time at the old port of Fira. To access the Old Port of Fira, please be aware that traditional transportation methods such as cars or motorbikes are not viable options. However, there are two convenient alternatives: You can embark on a picturesque 30-minute stroll down the steps, or opt for a hassle-free ride on the cable car (teleferic) for €6 per trip, departing every 15 minutes. Once you've reached the port, simply make your way to our office, Santo Star. Our team will extend a warm welcome and stand ready to address any inquiries or assistance you may require. At the end of our excursion, we get off at the starting point. If you choose the pick-up option, we offer several meeting points close to the main hotels. This list will be communicated to you after your reservation. We ask you to be there 5 minutes before the chosen time. Then, the bus will take you to the port of Athinios where you can embark. At the end of our outing, we will take you back to the meeting point.

The trip was exactly as described – and even better! The guide was very knowledgeable and kind. He answered all our questions and remained polite throughout the tour. Everything ran like Swiss clockwork and followed the timeline precisely. Although three hours might seem a bit short at first, it's actually the perfect amount of time to see the active volcano and enjoy a swim in the thermal springs. It was an amazing experience and well worth the price. The hot springs could be a little warmer, but of course, you can’t argue with nature. All in all, a perfect and well-organized trip. Thank you, Caldera Boats and CheckYeti!

Well organized, precise in the instructions; plus there were only about fifty of us on the boat. The visit to the volcanic island is informative (but the sun is strong!). Not much time for swimming, however! Very friendly guide.
