White Beach
In high contrast with the surrounding landscape, the white beach is a small cove formed by bright white towering cliffs.
Black Mountain / Indian Rock

Hot Springs
The ceaseless volcanic activity is in the maintains the water temperature between 30°C and 35°C. The sulfuric, orange-tinged spring waters of the Palaia Kameni islet are said to have healing properties.
Volcano
Emplaced in the center of the Santorinian caldera since at least AD 46, the Nea & Palaia Kammeni islets are actually lava flows covering the volcanic dome, slowly and continuously reshaping the landscape through the centuries.
Thirassia
Once part of Santorini, Thirassia emerged as a tiny piece of the main island during the violent volcanic eruption of 1500B.C.
