Ancient Thera, Santorini Overview
Ancient Thera is the second most important site in Santorini which is a must-visit attraction to deepen knowledge of ancient history and culture and enjoy a panoramic view of the Aegean Sea. It is located on Mesa Vouno Mountain close to Kamari town. It houses ruins of elegant Hellenistic shops, sculptures, arts and crafts, and much more.
To reach Ancient Thera, visitors can opt for a scenic hike from Kamari Beach or take a local bus from Fira. The road leading to the entrance is narrow and steep, making the drive difficult. You can drive up to a hill to Old Thera through a winding paved road offering beautiful views of the beach below. In 1895, evacuation in the area uncovered Hellenistic settlement that dates back to the 9th century. In the evacuation process, a mountain saddle between the Mesa Vouno and Profitis Ilias was discovered.
