Who Needs Santorini? We have Nisyros.

We receive a lot of requests for Blue Cruises to Santorini, the poster child of the Greek Islands. Unfortunately, the distances involved make the journey only suitable for 14 day cruises, and even then, delays are possible due to the strong meltemi winds.

Nisyros, on the other hand, is only about 15 miles south of Kos and easily included in a Southern Dodecanese Blue Cruise.  An active volcano, the island boasts just three towns, of which Nikia is perched directly on the rim of the caldera. On the southern side of the village, there is a breath-taking view of Tilos and Symi floating silently on the deep blue sea.  Walk a few steps away and you'll come to the drop-off directly into the caldera of the volcano.  For more photos, check out the latest album our Facebook page.
