NISYROS

Nisyros is one of the most unique Greek islands with unique beauty, an open-air geological museum. Almost everything on the island's nature owes its birth to volcanic activity that begins 160,000 years ago and stops about 15,000 years ago (the youngest major volcanic center in Greece). The long-standing volcanic activity and its imprint on the island's geomorphology has left its mark on every corner of the island and has contributed to a rare biodiversity. To get to know the secrets and beauty of the island you will have to dedicate both time and energy. Despite being a small island, it takes a lot of time to visit and get to know it. It requires walking on its paths that lead from the impressive craters in the middle of the island's caldera to its peak at Profitis Ilias and its beautiful villages (Emporio and Nikia) or its beaches (Pachia Ammos, Moulara, Chochlakoi, etc.).
