Discover Thirassia with SantoriniExperts
Explore the authentic, unspoiled sister island opposite Santorini. Meet the locals and discover a hidden cave house village.
Thirassia is one of the group of 5 islands that form Santorini, which was separated at the volcano eruption 3.600 years ago. So close and yet so far, Thirassia stayed untouched by the tourism industries.
Let us take you back to Greece like it used to be 50 years ago and gain insights about the agriculture and the art of wine making.
Santorini Volcanic Islands Cruise: Volcano, Hot Springs and Thirassia
A Day tour of Santorini Volcanic Islands Cruise Volcano, Hot Springs and Thirassia.
Music by : bensound.com
The tour starts from Fira old port towards the island Nea Kameni, where you'll have the opportunity to walk up the soil path and approach the crater of the still active volcano. Then, return to the boat which will take you to the second lava island, Palea Kameni, where you'll find the amazing hot springs - the boat will make a stop about 50 meters from the opening, so you can swim in the green sulfur waters of the hot springs, wet your feet, or just enjoy the view!
After the hot springs, the tour continues to Thirassia Island, which was once part of the island of Santorini before the volcano's explosion. Spend two hours on this amazing island and do some swimming, hang out on the beach, have lunch next to the sea, or explore the village of Manolas with its winding steps and traditional houses.
From the Thirassia Island sail towards the Oia and then back to the old Fira port.
An Awesome experience and journey-

Santorini island is a top travel destination for a reason: the amazing scenery, the towns along the clifftop rim of the caldera, the architecture of the popular sugarcube towns (Fira, Firostefani, Imerovigli and Oia where you will find the iconic whitewashed houses and blue domed churches, all real, not just a snapshot in a card postal), the beautiful villages (don’t miss Pyrgos and if you have time add Megalochori at your itinerary, we also checked Ekso Gonia and Mesaria), seaside towns of Kamari and Perissa (yes there are no sandy beaches but the east coast has the long Black beach and if you drive down to Akrotiri don’t miss the Red beach, ok no one goes to Santorini for the beaches of course but at least you have some alternatives to the pools), countless vineyards and wineries where you can try local wines, impressive historic sites (Akrotiri excavations are a must but also the ruins of Ancient Thera on the rock above Kamari).
And of course the famous sunset, most people go to Oia for this but have in mind many others will be there with you, if you have extra days try to see the sunset from many different spots or towns along the clifftop rim. The most romantic was down at the southern part of the island in front the lighthouse where only 10 other couple were there with us while the previous day more than 1000 were trying to get selfies in Oia…
This time we stayed at the east coast where you can admire the sunrise and not the sunset... but in the evening we were just visiting the west coast for the sunset ;)
But Santorini is the most expensive greek island. You can still save the bank with some planning, skip taxis and use local transport, book a room away from the caldera, eat some souvlaki and not only in glamourous restaurants, and use common sense (eg.buy the combo ticket for attractions which is 14e and includes Akrotiri, Ancient Thera and 4 museums while Akrotiri costs 12e on its own…)
Let’s be honest you need at last 2-3 full days… Have in mind it’s not a party island (use Mykonos for this) so big groups of friends may get bored after the second sunset :)
Last but not least I have to admit that we usually avoid the greek islands during high season, in Santorini 6000 people may arrived in one day because of the cruise ships, add to that the hordes that arrive with local ferries and you get the picture (chaotic, traffic on every road, packed parking lots, ridiculously expensive hotel rooms, bad service). That’s why we traveled there in May 2016, everyone was still calm and not rude, restaurants open but half empty (so service was good and friendly), hotel prices at 30-40% of the august prices, we never had problem with parking (Fira’s main street was jammed as usual) or anything else apart for the ferry strike that kept us there for two extra days (how nice to get trapped in paradise, no?) so we had 6 in total and still we didn’t get bored (although I’ve been there twice in the past) as we explored every possible corner :)
Travel time from Piraeus to Santorini usually takes 9 hours. This precious 9 hours gives you enough time to enjoy the immense blue Aegean Sea and bask on the picturesque view of the islands...
Oia, Santorini, Cyclades, Greece, Europe
Oia is a small town and former community in the South Aegean on the islands of Thira (Santorini) and Therasia, in the Cyclades, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it has been part of the municipality of Santorini, of which it is a municipal unit. It covers the whole island of Therasia and the northwesternmost part of Santorini, which it shares with the municipal unit of Santorini. The main street is named Nikolaou Nomikou. The population was 3376 inhabitants at the 2001 census, and the land area is 19.449 km2. Oia was previously known as Apano Meria (Απάνω Μεριά or Επάνω Μεριά, upper side), a name which still occurs locally as Pano Meria, and the inhabitants are still called Apanomerites (Απανωμερίτες). The Ancient Greek Oia was one of the two harbours of ancient Thera and was located in the southeast of the island, where Kamari is now. Oia reached the peak of prosperity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Its economic prosperity was based on its merchant fleet, which plied trade in the Eastern Mediterranean, especially from Alexandria to Russia. The two-story captains' houses built on the highest part of the village are a reminder of the village's former affluence. Part of the town was destroyed by the 1956 earthquake. Oia is scenic village in the north west edge of the Santori island within the Cyclades. It extends for almost 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) along the northern edge of the caldera that forms the island of Santorini, at a height of between 70 and 100 metres (230 and 330 ft) above sea level. Immediately to the east is Phinikia (Φοινικιά; Finikia), and about 500 metres (550 yd) to the north is Tholos (Θόλος). The small fishing village of Ormos Armeni (Όρμος Αρμένης) lies below Oia to the south and is reached via steps. There is a ferry connection to Therasia from the harbour village of Ormos Ammoudi (Όρμος Αμμουδιού; also spelled Amoudi) to the west. There are 300 steps down to the port from Oia. The small island of Agios Nikolaos lies to the southwest. It is built on the steep slope of the caldera and the houses and restaurants are built into niches carved into the caldebra on the seaward side. There are narrow passageways and a central square. The sun light hours in this village are much longer than in the Fira town. Its paths are very narrow and hence gets congested during the tourist season. The idyllic surroundings of the town have a complex of white washed blue domed churches and charming, traditional Cycladic houses and cave houses that are carved into the rock face on top of the cliff. It is set in a location which provides excellent views of the sunset over the caldera. To the southwest, the Bay of Armeni, reachable from the town on foot or by mule, was once an important boat-building centre. Small repairs are now done on a single wharf. Excursion boats for trips around the island and ferries to Therasia leave from here. The harbour of Ammoudi on the western side of the town is reached by steep stairs north of Fort Londsa; there are a few tavernas and a pebble beach. The village is located on top of a hill, at about 150 metres (490 ft) elevation, and known as the Eagles nest from where Palia and Nea Kameni volcanoes are seen and also the island of Thirassia. It is situated to the north of the island and Fira is at distance of 11 kilometres (6.8 mi). The main street in the town, in the central square, is the main trekking path which is cobbled, called the Nikalaou Namikaou, which goes up the hill winding round the caldebra. The island is reached from Fira which is the transport terminus of the island. Caldera boat cruise options are available from either Oia or Fira. Oia typifies the white-painted houses of the Cyclades, in many cases built directly into niches which are cave houses used by crew of the ships, on the lip of the volcanic crater, between which are narrow alleys and blue-roofed churches with cupolas. The wealthy ship captains of the late 19th century built neo-classical mansions. These houses are seen built in succession one above the other. In 1976 the town was included in the programme for preservation and development of traditional settlements of the Greek National Tourism Organisation under Aris Konstantinidis. Over 15 years, the programme sought to preserve, restore and find new uses for selected houses and architectural ensembles representative of traditional Greek architecture. Many of the yposkafa spitia (υπόσκαφα σπίτια), simple seamen's houses on the edge of the caldera, became guest-houses, hotels and restaurants. For their work in Oia, the Greek National Tourism Organisation received the Europa Nostra Prize in 1979 and the Prize of the Architecture Biennale in Sofia in 1986.
Island of SANTORINI: EXPLORING its lonely, historic and abandoned WINDMILLS (GREECE)
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go for a walk and let's view the abandoned and ruined windmills of Santorini, Greece. Vic Stefanu, vstefanu@yahoo.com. Santorini (Greek: Σαντορίνη) or Thera (English pronunciation and officially Thira (Greek: Θήρα), is an island in the southern Aegean Sea, about 200 km (120 mi) southeast of Greece's mainland.
Santorini is one of the Cyclades islands in the Aegean Sea. It was devastated by a volcanic eruption in the 16th century BC, forever shaping its rugged landscape. The whitewashed, cubiform houses of its 2 principal towns, Fira and Oia, cling to cliffs above an underwater caldera (crater). They overlook the sea, small islands to the west and beaches made up of black, red and white lava pebbles.
Greece is a country in southeastern Europe with thousands of islands throughout the Aegean and Ionian seas. Influential in ancient times, it's often called the cradle of Western civilization. Athens, its capital, retains landmarks including the 5th-century B.C. Acropolis citadel with the Parthenon temple. Greece is also known for its beaches, from the black sands of Santorini to the party resorts of Mykonos.
