Details
Our beautiful sunset sailing trip to the volcano will start in port Fira, the oldest harbour of Santorini. Once you are settled on our gorgeous traditional ship, we will head towards the island Nea Kameni. Here, we will walk along the black volcanic stones while a guide tells you everything there is to know about the history and geology of this unique place. Those who are interested can visit the volcano for a small fee.
After 1.5 hours, we will continue our route to the hot springs of Palea Kameni. A dip in the mud and metal infused water is great for your skin, rheumatism, arthritis, and other physical pains. Later, we will anchor for a second swimming stop right before Thirasia Island. And when the day comes to an end, we will find anchor near Oia village.
The sun will set and turn the sky into a surrealistic colour pallet. You can enjoy the panoramic view of Oia covered in orange sunlight while sipping on some wine accompanied by delicious traditional Greek delicacies. After witnessing this unforgettable romantic scene, we will take you back to port Fira.
