South of Kos and facing Kardamena is the island of Nisyros, a brooding and from a distance a mysterious presence in the sea in the Dodecanese islands, between Kos and Tilos. It is basically a volcanic caldera 8 miles in diameter about 8 miles seawards south of Kos. It is a quiet place, far from the well trod tourist path, which is meant to fascinate and charm visitors with its strong colourful character, the dark brown of its volcanic earth, the white of its houses and the deep blue of its sea.
Everything you need to know about Syros island, the queen of Cyclades, Greece, an island for holidays all year round in the Aegean Sea. Syros – More than an island: The weather in Syros is.

Close by is the other volcanic island of Giali under the flight path to Kos Airport which looks like it has been bisected as it is mined for pumice. There are no large towns on Nisyros but rather a collection of villages by the coast and on the crest of the caldera (Emboria and Nikkia) joined by the one road. It is an island I had long wanted to visit but had been put off by the reports of the “Volcano bus tour” which meets you at the harbour, then brings you to the “volcano” and back to the harbour. I wanted to see the real Nisyros so I arranged with Sevi in Lauzimis Tours (who operate boats and hydrofoils between the islands) to book a taxi to show us around Nisyros. There are only two taxi drivers listed on the island so she suggested Irene as she.

There are only two taxi drivers listed on the island so she suggested Irene as she was the better one and spoke English. So, it came to pass on the appointed day we found ourselves waiting on the quayside of Kos Harbour for the boat to Nisyros.
Only the boat had broken down so after some confusion we found ourselves on MV Petros, a 40 year old hydrofoil on the way to Nisyros. These are soviet built thunderbird like vessels originally built for the Volga and Don rivers and the Black Sea.
Petros seemed to be one of the original stock and we sat in the back cabin behind the noisy engines and looking at the ritual of the crew making frappes for themselves in the rudimentary kitchen but no service for the passengers! Even by the standards of these old vessels Petros sounded rough and our suspicions were confirmed next day when we saw it out of the water for repair at Kos Marina being subject to frantic hammering and welding. After a while Nisyros loomed closer, dark and mysterious from afar but closer up you begin to detect the houses and greenery and soon our destination, Mandraki, the harbour town. Because the hydrofoil takes half the time of the boat our taxi driver Irene wasn’t there but in the best Greek tradition we had a coffee at the harbour and mentioned we were early and a call was made to Irene who turned up in 15 minutes. Up the side of the volcano we headed on the steep road taking more than a passing interest in old Audi’s wheezing & rattling. The island of Nisyros is one big strato-volcano with a large central caldera.
