Volcano & Hot Springs: The 15 Best Santorini Trips

27 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.4 average  ·  from $29

Nea Kameni is a live vent that last erupted in 1950, and the springs off Palea Kameni are warm, rust-coloured and slightly sulphurous. These 15 trips cover the crater walk and the swim: how long the climb takes, what shade there is (none), and which boats give you enough time in the water.

“Loved this volcano and sunset cruise. I am not very fit myself but managed to get to the top of the volcano with few stops to catch my breath. Really enjoyed the views and was able to learn a lot about the geological past of this island. I am not a great swimmer so didn't swim in the sea but my husband did and he enjoyed it. The water didn't stain his swimming trunks much, so it was ok.

First scuba lesson in Santorini’s volcanic caldera at Akrotiri, small-group training, gear provided, and guided reef time.

“This was one of the most anticipated events of our honeymoon for me. I was extremely excited and confident yet when it came time to do it I have to admit I was terrified. Our instructor did a fantastic job at explaining everything and being clear with instructions but for some reason I was still scared when I had everything on and in the water. Luckily he took the time to instill confidence in me by taking baby steps with breathing, slowly descending to practice ear pressure control, and then learning the basics of underwater buoyancy. After doing this I was way more comfortable in just a matter of minutes…”
