Activity description

Discover the volcanic islands in the Greek Cyclades that surround beautiful Santorini on this fun-filled cruise with several stops and guided walks! Visit an active volcano, dive into thermal waters, and explore the picturesque island of Thirassia.

On this 6-hour adventure, you'll cruise Santorini's Caldera in style on a distinctive and traditional Greek boat. In the company of an experienced Captain and a knowledgeable guide, you can choose between being picked up from your accommodations or meeting at the departure point. Either way, you'll board the vessel at Santorini's Athinios Port for an amazing boat tour on the Aegean Sea! 

Your first stop is the lava islet of Nea Kameni, where your guide will lead you on a walking tour to the crater of an active volcano. Make sure to bring your camera! After your visit, you'll return to the ship and continue onwards towards the Palea Kameni volcano islet, also known as the "Hot Springs". There, you'll have the chance to dive off of the boat and enjoy the incredible emerald thermal waters! 

Next, you'll head to the charming island of Thirassia where you'll have some free time to explore. Relax at the port, savour a delicious lunch, or explore the small village of Manolas. You'll return to Athinios Port in Santorini with memories that will last a lifetime! 

On your next vacation in Greece, don't miss this unique volcanic island boat tour from Santorini!

Nous avons réalisé cette excursion en famille. Elle est complète : randonnée, baignade, panorama… le rapport qualité prix est au rendez-vous. On avait en plus la chance d’avoir un guide en français.

I highly recommend this tour guide to solo travelers! The entire staff, from the pick-up driver to the tour drivers and guide, was amazing. If you're planning your first solo trip like I did, book this tour guide – you won't regret it. The guide was friendly, informative, and patient, making the experience worthwhile. I also got to meet new people on the tour, so you won't feel lonely.
