AEGEAN ADVENTURE – full day
Itinerary
Description
Leaving Kardamena harbour located in the south of Kos behind us, we are heading on a traditional boat towards to picturesque islands.
The first one, Agios Antonios, is set just across from Giali where pumice is extracted, and can only be reached by boat. After docking, guests can enjoy the beach and the clear shallow waters. There is also a small chapel on top of the hill that offers a nice panoramic view.
Nissyros is its name and is famous for its active volcano. The boat arrives in Mandraki, the capital of this small island that has kept a typical Greek charm.
Busses are ready to take the guests up to the caldera which, with its 4 km width, is one of the biggest in Europe. The lunar landscape is unusual. Guests can go down by foot into the crater and discover the volcanic activity from close by: yellow crystals created by the sulphurous steam, holes in the bottom and the unmistakable odor of sulphur.
After this unique experience, busses will bring the guests back to the harbor and they will have free time to explore and enjoy the typical authentic Greek atmosphere and cuisine. Some may want to go up to the monastery of Agia Spyliani to be amazed by the views that it offers. Others will enjoy a stroll through its narrow streets.
