The Area:

Akrotiri, located on the stunning southern coast of Santorini, is one of the island's most fascinating areas, blending incredible archaeological heritage with breathtaking natural beauty. Renowned for its prehistoric town, which was preserved in volcanic ash much like Pompeii, Akrotiri offers visitors a unique glimpse into the advanced civilizations that flourished on Santorini thousands of years ago.

Beyond its historical allure, Akrotiri is celebrated for its dramatic landscapes, including the famous Red Beach, known for its striking red volcanic rocks and crystal-clear waters. This area is less crowded than the bustling towns of Fira and Oia, providing a more relaxed atmosphere for visitors who wish to enjoy the quieter side of Santorini.

Public transportation in Akrotiri is available but less frequent than in the central parts of the island. Buses run regularly from Akrotiri to various parts of the island, including the capital, Fira, where connections to other destinations can be made easily. For more flexibility, visitors often rent cars or scooters to explore the island at their own pace.

The nearest airport to Akrotiri is Santorini (Thira) National Airport, located approximately 12 kilometers away. This makes access to Akrotiri relatively straightforward for those arriving by air. The main port of Santorini, Athinios, is also conveniently close, about 9 kilometers north of Akrotiri, providing ferry connections to the mainland and other Aegean islands.

Visiting Akrotiri is a must for anyone interested in the history and natural beauty of Santorini. The area's archaeological site, combined with its scenic beaches and the stunning views of the caldera, make it a unique spot that offers both educational and recreational opportunities. Whether you are a history buff, nature lover, or simply seeking a peaceful retreat from the more tourist-heavy spots on the island, Akrotiri promises a fulfilling and enriching experience.

This amount is not a charge from us, and we do not profit from it in any way.

Once we collect this fee, we pay it in full directly to the government as a tax.

Payment is required before check-in, as per Greek law.
