It started with several large explosive eruptions a bit out of nowhere: on 22 June, a powerful explosion occurred on the almost unknown Raikoke volcano, a tiny uninhabited island in the central-northern Kuriles. When we visited the place 3 weeks later during our first Kuriles expedition, a once green island had been transformed into a hell of ash with no living thing left, truly an image of apocalypse.
A week later, Ulawun volcano in New Britain (Papua New Guinea) produced a large paroxysm and a second one on 3 Aug, sending ash plumes to almost 20 km into the atmosphere. These eruptions certainly rank among the biggest in recent decades. They even ejected enough aerosols into the high stratosphere to cause unusual sunsets in the northern hemisphere, often visible even now. [less]

Deeply intertwined with ancient history and legends, the Saronic Gulf is an area full of unspoiled nature, hidden archeological remains, charming villages and even has an active volcano (currently dormant) right in front of Aegina: the Methana peninsula with its lush, green mountains and hidden geologic treasures such as fumaroles and hot springs famous since antiquity.
On this tour which is available throughout the year at dates on request for small groups of up to 6 people, you will get to know some of the lesser known, but gorgeous destinations of this area, accompanied by an expert geologist or photographer from our team. It is a perfect addition to your visit to Athens or Greece in general and can be easily combined with your own program. [less]
