AKROTIRI
A village built on the most irrelevant part of the island about 12 km from Fira at the southwestern tip on the most remote part of the island. The excavations in that area brought up the city of Acropolis, a fortified Venetian castle during the medieval years, which after the occupation of Santorini by the Turks was torn down. The remains of the castle are easily visible. There are two old churches in the village, Aghia Triada and Ipapandi tou Sotiros. As you are taking the road to Akrotiri, on your right, you will stay amazed from the fascinating view of the Caldera. The picturesque atmosphere by the view towards Fira and Oia will rivet you. There are many hotels around the area and also many taverns.
The excavations in the area brought ti light the settlement known as the City of Akrotiri. You shouldn't miss the Archaeological site of Akrotiri.
