Duration: 4 hours: A 4 hours private experience in the Caldera of Santorini
The Old Port under the capital Fira,use to be the main gate of the island till 1960,approachable only by steps(nowadays exists a cable car also),which gives us a very clear look how difficult life was in Santorini before becomes a strong touristy destination,as has become nowadays.The area is the base of the cruise ship also which makes it overcrowded.This is something though that doesn’t effect our experience
Upon request,we can make a stop at the volcanic park of Nea Kammeni which represents the most recent volcanic eruptions of the volcano of Santorini and take a closer look at it
Even if you have chosen not to stop in the volcanic park,our skipper,after giving us a detail guidance about the volcanic activities that create Caldera,will make the first stop for swimming in the attraction of the island,the thermal springs!Over there we will have the opportunity to feel that the volcano remains active,as from activities of it,the sea water gets warm up reaching in some area the temperature of a 100 degrees in Fahrenheit!The area is full of minerals also with positive effects in the skin too.
This is the first lava island that rises from the center of the creator,after the major activity that create Caldera.Here we can see the flow of lava rising from the sea,creating some amazing landscapes.On the south side of it,we can find a beach with crystal clear waters which if you ask your skipper to stop and enjoy it,you will find him positive,if the weather allow him to.
Our next destination,Thirassia,the west side of the volcano of Santorini,before get divided in three different peaces.Through the cutting we can see how the volcano was created eruption after eruption,as also we going to have the opportunity to swim or snorkel,in crystal clear waters this time.The place reminds us Santorini of 90’ as the tourism hasn’t effect the area a so much.While our guests swimming,we have time to prepare our traditional products,which our guests going to find waiting for them,finishing swimming
