Why go
The flooded volcanic caldera defines the cliff settlements of Fira and Oia. Akrotiri's buried Bronze Age town gives the island an archaeological counterpoint. Santorini links both observations directly. At Santorini, trace their relationship. Santorini then explains its distinct role. Let Santorini set the pace before your next stop.
