Walk directly into the crater of a dormant volcano, feeling the warmth of the earth beneath your shoes. The sulfurous fumes and otherworldly landscape offer a truly unique experience. Stay the night in Mandraki and visit early to avoid the crowds from day-trip boats and have the crater to yourself.
