Overview

This boat tour in Santorini centers on visits to the island's active volcano and nearby hot springs. The trip lasts about three hours and includes bus transfers. The boat leaves the old port of Fira at 11:00 AM and sails ten minutes to the small bay of Erinia by the volcano. Guests have 75 minutes to explore the area, including an optional hike to the volcano’s summit where smoking rocks and the smell of brimstone are visible. After returning to the boat, the trip continues to Palaia Kameni island, known for its natural hot springs and mud baths formed by volcanic activity. The boat stays in the bay of St. Nickolas for around 30 minutes, allowing time for swimming in water heated to 30 - 35 degrees Celsius. Swimming requires climbing down stairs from the boat and swimming about 30 meters to reach the hot springs. The tour finishes with a boat ride back to the original port. Included are a local guide, swimming noodles, onboard restrooms, and round-trip transfer. Entrance to the volcano, lunch, and snacks are not included.
