Itinerary

  • Santorini Volcano

    The Santorini volcano tour starts from the picturesque old port of Fira. Gialos, the Old Port, lies below Fira, nestled at the foot of a rocky cliff. You will be surprised with the steep slopes of the Caldera and in the end the tiny port will appear under these huge rocks and the cave houses that seem to dangle on the cliff. There the guides of your excursion will be waiting for you, to give you all the important information and to orientate you on the boat. Our first destination will be the famous volcano of Santorini! After 20 minutes sailing, we will reach Nea Kameni. If you are interested to be guided at the volcano, you will walk to the volcano’s ridge with your guide and you will listen to everything about the history and the geology of the volcano. You will stay at the volcanic island for 1,5 hour.

  • Palea Kameni

    Next we reach by boat the island of Palea Kameni with the hot springs, the famous mud baths, which were formed as result of volcanic eruptions. In the small bay of Agios Nikolaos the water temperature ranges from 30 to 35 degrees Celsius, as it mixes continuously with the normal sea currents. The waters are mixed with mud that they are full of sulfur, iron and other metals coming from the volcano and they are very good for the skin, rheumatism, arthritis and other physical pains. Important Note : In order to reach Agios Nicholaos’ beach is essential to swim extremely well The boat will be staying here about 30 minutes to allow you a healthy bath. After the bath, you will return to the old port of Fira.

Loved it

Published on Sep, 2024

Loved the volcano hike; lovely to cool off in the “hot springs” (barely warm lol) afterwards. Highly recommend

Volcano and a natural hot tub - a great pair!

Published on Jul, 2024

This was a wonderful experience. Starting the tour with an exploration of Nea Kemini gave a phenomenal panoramic view from the center of the caldera. We learned some background information about the destruction of Akrotiri and what would happen if the volcano were to violently explode again. After that, we had a wonderful swim in the water and the thermals. One tip for others - you have to jump off the boat into deep waters and swim at least 50 meters each way to and from the boat in moving waves. They had pool noodles for anyone who wanted to use them. Definitely be aware of your swimming strength!

Amazing

Published on May, 2024

Georgia was fantastic and the whole experience was awesome. The hike up the volcano wasn’t too challenging, and we were given breaks to catch our breath. The swim in the hot springs were amazing, but make sure to wear a dark swim suit as the minerals will stain light colors. Also recommend showering and especially washing your hands before you do anything else, as I caught a mild bacterial infection from the swim.

Volcano tour

Published on May, 2024

Excellent tour and history of the volcano and formation of Santorini as it is today. If you plan to swim wear a dark bathing suit.

Interesting and fun trip

Published on Oct, 2023
