Highlights
Throughout this hiking adventure, you will escape the crowds, discover hidden corners, and admire Santorini’s volcanic landscape.
The journey begins with a hike from Pyrgos Village to Megalochori, with an optional stroll through Pyrgos’ medieval alleys, a visit to the Kastelli ruins, and panoramic island views.
In Megalochori Village, enjoy a break for coffee, water, and a traditional sweet, or—if preferred—a glass of wine at Arvanitis Winery, next to the Family Bakery. Free time is also offered to wander the village paths, browse local shops, and take photographs of its Cycladic architecture.
The trail continues along the caldera rim, following historic wine paths and offering views from the “heart” of Santorini. You will then cross volcanic dunes toward Eros Beach, with time for a swim if weather permits.
The experience ends at Vlychada Bay with lunch by the sea at a traditional Greek taverna. Finally, you will coordinate your return by transportation with your experience host.

Eros is a wonderful, secluded beach with black sand and sapphire blue sea, on the south part of Santorini. It lies on the coastal area of Vlychada and is actually a continuation of the long Vlychada Beach. The landscape is dominated by the hard white volcanic rock of Santorini in formations reminiscent of a lunar landscape, ending at steep vertical slopes just before the sea. We spend 1 hour for a swim and a drink at the beach bar.Vlychada Beach

It stands out for the overwhelming carved cliffs that resemble a sculptor's work but is, in fact, a natural process owed to the volcano, the wind and the sea. We will dine and wine at a traditional taverna, Kyra Rini.
