Winding paths and steps worth exploring weave through the heart of the village. This charming traditional settlement stands out from other Santorini villages. Unlike Fira or Oia, it lacks a view and their prestige but has a unique character, closely connected to the natural surroundings and rocky terrain of Thira.

Vothonas
Traverse the narrow lanes and stairways that weave through the heart of this village. Possessing a unique charm that sets it apart from Santorini’s other settlements, Vothonas offers no view, nor, the reputation of Fira or Oia. The character of this locale, however, shines through its intimate connection to its natural surroundings and the rocky terrain of Thira.
Wine Museum
Located 8 metres underground, it is Greece’s only subterranean Wine Museum. Spanning 300 metres and designed like a maze, this institution shares the story of wine and the day-to-day experiences of Santorini’s viticulturists, starting from the year 1660.
