Overview
A boat cruise around Santorini's caldera (a 12km-wide submerged volcanic crater) and one of the trip's biggest highlights. Land on Nea Kameni, the active volcanic island at the caldera's center, and hike 30 minutes to the crater where steam still rises. Swim in the warm yellow waters of the Palea Kameni sulfur hot springs nearby. Stop at quiet Thirasia island for lunch in an unspoiled Greek village, and finish by watching Oia's sunset from the boat - an unforgettable finale. About EUR 30-80 (choose traditional kaiki or catamaran). Departs from Fira's old port or Ammoudi Bay.
Travel Tips
Sunset cruises are extremely popular - book ahead. The volcano hike is over black volcanic rock, so wear sneakers; bring a swimsuit too.
