Transfer to port of Kardamena. The ferry brings us in one hour from Kardamena port to the capital of Nissiros, Mandraki, where our way to the crater starts.
The upper we come, the better the view! We pass by strange trees and bushes steep up to the crater of this active volcano. The panoramic view from there is amazing: the fresh blue of the ocean and the neighboring islands on one side, the sulfur yellow crater on the other side. we walk down on food to see all the details. After that we visit the most beautiful mountain village of the island – Nikia.
Typical Greece architecture, little blue and white houses and a great view! We enjoy a cup of coffee on the traditional “platia” of the village and decend after that down to Mandraki. After a walk through the village we return to the port and take the boat at 16.00h back to Kardamena.
You will visit a very special part of Greece, that not too many people have the chance to see!
