I had heard about Nisyros from some friends who spent two weeks there, but we went only for a day from Kos. There are boats from Kardamena in Kos that go to
Nisyros in the morning and come back in the evening. It is a small island but loveable, with cute white houses and nice people. I was surprised that so few gift shops are open in Nisyros, which shows that the island is still laid-back and doesn't depend much on tourism, a good thing for me. I don't know much about the beaches because we took a swim only in the beautiful beach close to the port, when we got back from the volcano. The tour to the volcano was interesting. We went with the bus from the port and stopped at a nice village called Nikia. This village had gorgeous views to the volcano and the wild landscape of the island. We were adviced to be very careful when walking on the volcano because it is still active and any careless move could cause problems. Very risky and impressive in a whole as an experience...
