Santorini Volcano

The Volcano, Santorini Overview

Santorini volcano is considered one of the most important attractions with crescent-shaped Cladera, which is a result of a volcanic eruption many years ago. The volcano is still active, although the last eruption occurred in the 1950s. Admire the wild, raw beauty of the region and discover black lava rocks on a hike of this steaming volcano.

The two islands of Palea Kameni and Nea Kameni are the volcano's craters and are entirely made of black lava. The volcano eruptions gave birth to these two islands and created five separate islands. It also led to the formation of beaches and coves covered with one-of-a-kind black sand, dark pebbles and hot springs, which attracted travellers from everywhere. In addition, the eruptions have made the soil rich in minerals and nutrients, resulting in Santorini producing a delicious wine. The volcanic crater can only be reached by boat.
