CALDERA MORNING CRUISE WITH KING THIRAS BOAT
- Free cancellation
- Hotel pickup
About this experience
Visit: Volcano - Hot Springs - Thirasia island - Cruise below Oia village - Return to Athinios port
The tour starts with a bus transfer from the pick-up point to the port of Athinios and continues with the King Thiras boat to the lava island of Nea Kameni. The boat will stop by Nea Kameni and we will have the chance to ascend the soil path and approach the crater of the active volcano.
After seeing the crater, we will walk back down the path and get on the boat. We’ll sail to the second lava island, the island of Palea Kameni and reach the Hot Springs.
The boat makes a stop approximately 50 meters away from the Hot Springs, so you can dive in the orange sulphur waters and enjoy the view. The tour continues to Thirasia island which was part of Santorini before the explosion of the volcano.
We will stay in Thirasia for two-three hours for lunch or swimming and explore the traditional village of Manolas. Sailing across Oia, on the way back to Athinios port, you will enjoy breath-taking views of the cliffs and the amazing scenery. The bus will be waiting at the port of Athinios, to take you back to the place where you started the excursion.
