Santorini Volcano
Nea Kameni is a small island situated in the gulf of Santorini. Its history is directly related to the volcano, whose eruptions and lava flow formed all the surrounding islands.
Volcanos
Skaros Rock
Skaros Rock is a large volcanic promontory extending into Santorini’s caldera, on which are the (now barely visible) ruins of the fortress of Kasteli, built between 1205 and 1230. The promontory itself was probably formed during a volcanic eruption that took place 68,000 BC.
Mavro and Kokkino Vouno volcanos
To the east of Oia there are two neighboring volcanic cones – Mavro (Megalo) Vouno (331 m a.s.l.) and Kokkino Vouno (293 m a.s.l.). They were active volcanoes about 50 – 70 thousand years ago.
