Santorini Tour
- Our first destination will be the famous volcano of Santorini! After 20 minutes of sailing, we will reach Nea Kameni’s jetty. Should you be interested in being guided at the volcano, you should pay 5 euros per person as an entrance fee.
- Then, you will walk to the volcano’s ridge with your guide, and he is going to explain everything about the history and the geology of the volcano. You will stay at the volcanic island for 1.5hr, and in the end, you will embark again on our boat for the next stop.
- The next stop of your tour will be the island of Palea Kameni, where the famous hot springs are located on the west side, a place that is really popular for its thermal waters. We will stop there for 30 min at a distance of 30 meters from the shallow waters of Agios Nicholaos’ beach. 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, it is essential to know swimming extremely well.
- The next stop is the island of Thirassia. Thirassia is a miniature of what Santorini used to be several years ago. Today, it is a virgin island, still untouched by tourism and modern lifestyle. It is only 9 sq. km in size and has approximately 300 permanent inhabitants. We will stay there for 2 hours, so as to explore this picturesque and traditional village as well as to taste the authentic Santorinian cuisine. You can also walk to the main village of Manolas, which is the capital of Thirassia. The view over Santorini is spectacular from there.
- After departing from your last destination, the boat tour will be finished at Athinios, the main port of Fira. After your disembarkation, a bus will be waiting for you in order to transfer you to Oia village. There you will have free time to explore this majestic village and admire the unique sunset.
- A bus will be waiting for you again at a specific pick-up that will drive you back to your drop-off location.
