The tour guide stated that these homes were built in the caves, maximizing it's areas, converted to homes. The naturally formed entrances were converted to doors and windows (the only available for these homes). The island is made from volcanic rocks, since it was part of the crater of the inactive Nea Kameni volcano.
Building options: Private home
