In the lovely, tranquil village of Akrotiri you can find the well-known lighthouse located on the extreme southwest part of the island, 18 kilometers away from the capital of Santorini. It is considered one of the best and most beautiful lighthouses in Cyclades. Attuned to the rest of the island, it is an admirable building with whitewashed walls standing on the edge of a high cliff right above the sea. It is, by all means, an idyllic setting.

It is a traditional village at a strategic position in the center of the island, which hosts nice old mansions, vineyards, wineries and excellent restaurants with traditional local cuisine. It is well known for the bell tower,-as you approach the square-and its white churches with bright white and blue domes. The central square is the heart of the village where locals gather in traditional cafes to unwind and have fun, creating a warm atmosphere. It is only 9km distance from Fira, 6km from Perivolos and 7km from Kamari. An ideal place for families especially if you have your own or rented vehicle.
