More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of the shaded lane and the caldera opens before you: whitewashed houses perched over the sea, wind shaping the light, and the cliff edge daring you closer. A local guide in an air-conditioned vehicle meets you and the island’s geology and history begin to unfold — raw volcanic cliffs, pumice-strewn shores, and terraces that have held vines for centuries.
