This short tour will take you by boat to see two lava islands with their Volcanos and will allow you to swim in the sulphuric Hot Springs.
The tour starts by bus to Athinios port where you will board the boat that will cruise to the lava island Nea Kameni. Here you will have the opportunity to ascend the soil path and approach the crater of the still active volcano.
After seeing this fantastic sight, you will cruise to the second lava islet called Palea Kameni where you can find the Hot Springs. Here, the boat will make a stop approximately 50 meters from the Hot Springs opening where you will have an opportunity to swim in the green sulphur waters or simply just sit back and relax and enjoy the view.
Finally you will return to Athinios port where you will board the bus back to the point you started the tour from.
Please note entrance fees, port taxes and meals are not included. Please note that there is a €2.50pp entrance fee to the volcano which is collected by local authorities on the spot.
