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
