Highlights
  • Volcano Of Santorini - A peaceful romantic trip with the essence of a cruise to be unforgettable is the below excursion. It departs from the old port of Fira at 15:30 with a wooden sailling boat.

After a short trip of 10 minutes it reaches the small port of Nea Kameni , where the active volcano is. Your time there is for about 1 hour and 15 minutes where you can walk up and visit this wild landscape with the different volcanic rocks and the active craters of the volcano , where there is still smoke coming out and keenly smells sulfur.

  • Hot Springs - To continue , the boat will depart for the island of Palaia Kameni , where the hot springs are located. Inside the small bay of Agios Nikolaos the water temperature is 30-35 degrees Celcious but it constantly mixes with seawater. The boat stays for about 30 minutes , enough time since there is no beach , but you have to climb down a ladder of the boat into the sea and swim a distance of about 30 meters to the interior of the small bay , where the mud baths are.
  • Views of Santorini and Caldera - After swimming at the hot springs the boat will start a sail around the caldera where you can take magnificent pictures of the landscape and the houses that literally hang on the edge of the cliff , in compination with the beautiful colours of the sunset. On a wooden boat with sails , listening to nice music and enjoying a glass of local wine.

After the sunset the boat returns back to the old port of Fira.

Top and exciting trip to Mordor (cit.) - Great boat tour. We started super punctual and reached the nature park where you could visit the craters of the volcano. The Costas Guide acted as a Guide along the way in a very light and nice way, making the experience even more beautiful. Once back to the ship we sailed to the Hot Sprints, where the Poseidon ship stopped for half an hour, enough time to swim in these crazy pools. Before sunset we stopped an hour in the port of Thirassia so we could swim or browse the fishing village (PS. For cat lovers it is the top!). Absurd sunset accompanied by songs with guitars and back everyone dancing to revival songs. Highly recommended for those who want to spend a light but different afternoon.

Disappointed... Too afraid of time to enjoy, it's such a shame... - The ride on the volcano was nice, with a great view. However, you have to walk fast, with few stops to contemplate... The boat leaves us little time to do the whole circuit. No explanation through a guide. Hot water sources: same. Time to jump into the water, swim there and come back. We could not enjoy this moment at all.... If you're chilly: 24 degrees just....for hot springs.... And the third part: too much time in restaurants and shops... The boat rides are pleasant.
