Palea Kameni

Our next destination is the island of Palea Kameni, famous for its hot springs located on the west side. We will have a 30-minute stopover for swimming. The boat will stop approximately 30-40 meters away from the hot springs. In order to reach the hot waters, you will have to swim the rest of the way. Keep in mind that strong swimming skills are required for those who wish to swim in the hot springs, as the distance to be covered is considerable (30-40 meters).

Testimonials

This trip was fantastic, although the volcano posed challenges for some. I wish we had more time to explore certain sites.

We followed the donkey trail to the port, boarded the ship, walked up to the volcano, and enjoyed amazing views. We then swam to the smaller island to see the hot springs, but they weren't very hot. The information provided to the passengers was clear and helpful. After that, we hiked up the donkey trail again.
