A GEM IN THE HEART OF SANTORINI
This charming, Insta-worthy village found in the middle of Santorini, offers a dose of peace and tranquillity, surrounded by picturesque vineyards. Situated just a short distance from the bustling capital of Fira, Karterados provides a relaxing retreat away from the crowds, while still being conveniently close to the island’s main attractions, and you’ll never be far away from a beach.
The village comprises a central main street flanked by narrow alleys, each lined with traditional Cycladic structures and cave houses seamlessly integrated into the rocky landscape. Discover hidden gems such as local tavernas and quaint cafés serving authentic Greek cuisine. The village is also home to several historic churches, including the beautiful blue-topped Agios Nikolaos church, which appears in almost every single postcard image of Santorini.
With its laid-back atmosphere and typically Greek, warm hospitality, Karterados provides an authentic Santorini experience. Whether you want to mooch around its charming streets or simply relax and soak in the tranquil surroundings, you’ll be instantly attracted by the timeless allure of Karterados.
If you’re visiting Santorini and haven’t yet pencilled in all of your overseas activities, you’re in for a treat. easyJet holidays is proudly supporting the Cyclades Preservation Fund’s campaign in Santorini, Posidonia Alert, which helps to protect Posidonia Oceanica – a vital species of seagrass that absorbs carbon up to 15 times more efficiently than terrestrial forests.
As part of this work, we’re happy to offer a guided snorkelling experience for just £1. The trip will be led by a master diver who knows the caldera – and Santorini – inside out. You’ll have the chance to see the unique Posidonia seagrass meadows for yourself and enjoy swimming in the stunning waters of the Aegean Sea. Plus, the trip includes use of snorkelling equipment, as well as pick up and drop off. Click here to book.
