- Nea Kameni volcano, Santorini
(This could be the nearest we have ever been to an active volcano. Nea Kameni is the round shaped island right in the middle of the caldera of Santorini. To get to it, we walked to the main town of Fira, took a cable car down to the port below, from which a sailing ship then ferried us to the island. The 40min trek up to the volcano gave lovely views, but in the 40C heat, I decided to leave it to hubby to get to the 130m top. Sulphur smells coming off from smokey vents tells us this is one active volcanic site. For me, the moonscape was not as interesting as the handsome yacht-like ship which took us there)
