Your Experience

Welcome aboard your Santorini 3-Hour Cruise to Volcano and Hot Springs, starting at Fira's Old Port. Here you'll meet your English-speaking guide amidst the stunning backdrop of steep cliffs and cave houses that seem suspended in mid-air.

  • First stop: The volcano near Nea Kameni

Your journey continues as you board a comfortable boat sailing towards Santorini's iconic Volcano. If interested, ascend with your guide to the ridge (entrance fee 2.5€ per person) and explore its long history and geological significance. Capture stunning views from this excellent vantage point.

  • Next destination: Palea Kameni

Spend an hour at the volcano before heading to Palea Kameni, home to renowned hot springs and mud baths located in Agios Nikolaos bay. The water here is a soothing 30-35 degrees Celsius, enriched with mud, iron, sulfur, and other minerals beneficial for skin conditions like rheumatism and arthritis.

After enjoying a rejuvenating 30-minute soak, you'll return to Fira's Old Port (swimming ability required to reach Agios Nikolaos beach).
