About this site
Palea Kameni is the small volcanic islet inside the Santorini caldera, near the hot springs on its eastern shore where boat tours often stop. Dive sites around this islet sit within the volcanic bay formed by the ancient eruption that shaped the modern Santorini archipelago, with the seabed reflecting that volcanic origin.
