2. Megalochori is one of the most picturesque villages on the island. Its existence is recorded back to the 17th century. Home to historical mansions, old traditional houses, pirate hideaways and wine canavas, it has a history of merchants and wealthy land barons exporting Vinsanto wine that the island still produces. A prominent feature of the historical homes and mansions are the high walls, inner courtyards and solid wooden door entrances, built for privacy and for safety against marauding pirates. A great effort is been made by local residents and businessmen to preserve the characteristics and beauty of this traditional settlement, and many of the original houses that had fallen into disrepair, have been restored to their former glory.

3. Red Beach Santorini: The red beach is arguably the most famous and beautiful beaches of Santorini. It is also considered as one of the most spectacular beaches in Greece. It is located in the area of Akrotiri and only some steps away from the ancient site of Akrotiri. The small size of the beach creates a much crowded atmosphere and there are many days where most of the visitors choose not to make it all the way down to the beach and instead admire this unique landscape of red and black volcanic rocks from the headland.

4. The prehistoric settlement of Akrotiri on the island of Santorini (Thíra) is one of the most important sites in the Aegean. In prehistory it was a well connected Minoan port town, with connections to mainland Greece and as far afield as Egypt and Syria. As the town was covered in ash following a volcanic eruption on the island, preservation of the settlement is exceptional, making this one of the most significant archaeological sites in Greece. Today the site is covered by a bioclimatic roof and walkways are suspended above the archaeological remains, that allows visitors to walk among the two and three-storey buildings. entrance (12€ per person)

About Santorin

Santorin, Sichel vulkanischer Klippen in der Ägäis: weiße Dörfer und blaue Kuppeln über einer gefluteten Caldera, berühmt für Sonnenuntergänge.

Die Insel ist der Rand eines alten Vulkans, dessen Ausbruch eine riesige, vom Meer gefüllte Caldera hinterließ. An ihrem Rand klammern sich Fira, die Hauptstadt, und die Klippendörfer Imerovigli und Firostefani an die Hänge, während Oia an der Nordspitze für seine Sonnenuntergänge über Windmühlen und weiß getünchten Häusern gefeiert wird.
