Program details

Experience the lunar landscapes of the Santorini caldera with a cruise to the four islands.

HIGHLIGHTS:


* Walk around the edge of the crater on Nea Kameni

* Bathe in the natural hot springs of Palia Kameni

* Have lunch in a traditional tavern at Thirasia

* Opt to disembark at Oia


Sail into the heart of the caldera, a result of a catastrophic volcanic eruption that broke one island into four. We begin the cruise at Athinios port and set sail to Nea Kameni, the larger of the two islets in the centre of the caldera. Here you have the thrilling opportunity of hiking to the rim of the crater; dare to walk around the edge whilst taking in the views over the moon-like landscape.


We continue to Palia Kameni to bathe in the hot springs created by the volcano’s underwater currents. Set sail to Thirasia for lunch in a small traditional tavern and swim in the crystal clear waters, or even visit Manolas, a cobble-stone hamlet perched high above with spectacular views over the caldera, Santorini and beyond.


Our cruise then takes us to the northernmost tip of Santorini to Oia, the jewel of the island. Whitewashed buildings and bright blue domes sparkling in the sunlight form a picture postcard view you won’t forget. You can choose to disembark here or continue the cruise back to Athinios port.
