The Greek island of Nisyros is in fact a dormant volcano of the Aegean and is actually made of volcanic eruptions millions of years ago. Nisyros does not boast of an equally caldera like this of Santorini, but the volcano seems to be the main tourist attraction in both islands.

The volcanic island of Nisyros has intense hydrothermal activity with hot springs dotted along the coast. Thermiani Spring has been well known since antiquity as it is considered to be chosen by Hippocrates, father of medicine, as a healing centre. The beaches of the island are mainly rocky and the most popular of them are Mandraki with black pebbles formed from volcanic lava, Avlaki, Palli, Katsouni and Pachia Ammos. Hiking is also a good option of sport activity on the island and there are a number of routes to follow passing by the volcano rim and crater. The little square of Mandraki hosts the main social life with taverns and traditional coffee shops.
