Superb ride on the volcano! The hot spring is there on foot but it is muddy and orange. You have to swim 50m from the boat. The boat is very pretty and typical! On the other hand, swimming in thirassia is not pleasant and the hilltop village lacks interest. Very pretty views however.

E stato un tour molto interessante, fondamentale per scoprire la geografia e la storia della formazione di Santorini e delle altre isole dell'arcipelago. Salpati da Porto Athinios, si inizia l'esplorazione delle isole della caldera di Santorini: Nea Kameni, dove si raggiunge il cratere attivo del vulcano, Paléa Kameni e le sue sorgenti di acqua sulfurea, Thirasia con il suo porticciolo e il villaggio di pescatori di Manolas. Dopo il rientro in porto, trasferimento in autobus a Oia, il villaggio più famoso di Santorini dove si può ammirare un tramonto spettacolare. La guida era molto preparata e coinvolgente. Sulla barca si possono acquistare acqua e snack.
