Explore the Villages of Santorini
Oia
Oia is Santorini’s most famous village, known for its stunning sunsets, narrow cobblestone streets, and traditional whitewashed houses with blue domes. Visitors flock to Oia to enjoy panoramic views of the caldera and the Aegean Sea, making it one of the most photographed spots in Greece
Fira
Fira, the capital of Santorini, is perched on the edge of the caldera and serves as the island’s commercial and cultural hub. Fira combines breathtaking views with bustling streets filled with shops, restaurants, and museums, such as the Archaeological Museum of Thera, which houses artifacts from Akrotiri and other sites
Akrotiri
Akrotiri is an ancient Minoan Bronze Age settlement, famously preserved under volcanic ash after the eruption of Thera around 1600 BCE. Often called the “Minoan Pompeii,” Akrotiri offers remarkable insight into ancient architecture, frescoes, and daily life on the island before the eruption. Its proximity to the Red Beach also allows visitors to enjoy both historical exploration and natural beauty.
