 Acqua Vatos Hotel
posted by Sparkle on 8 November 2007 at 13:58 Small family run hotel in Kamari. You couldnt ask for a nicer hotel and more helpful staff who will tell you the best places to go while staying in Santorini. |
Santorini is one of the cycladic islands, created by the eruption of
the volcano 1500 B.C. (thought by some to have brought about the end of
the Minoan civilization and speculated by some as the famous island of
Atlantis). Due to this, the island offers a versatile landscape with on
the one hand steep darkish rock formations and on the other hand
beaches and small white villages. Besides that, there are several
interesting monuments and the active volcano of course. Thira offers,
besides remnants from several eras, ruins of the old Roman baths,
theatres and markets. Santorini is a group of islands in a circle about 10 KM across -
the rim of a large volcano that is still producing small islands in the
center. Steep slopes lead to the central area and gentle slopes lead to
the sea that circles the island. It's really a group of islands even
though it is usually discussed as if it were one. Settlements are
scattered around the island as a series of small villages. Bus service
connects those settlements on each island and ferries connect the
islands. Although bus, cab, and car are all common, the charm of the
island is to walk. Scooters, for rent by the day, are an excellent
option for buzzing from beach to beach. The famous white
buildings are huddled close to one another on and over the cliff of the
central caldera. Hiking paths and trails lead all over the island, but
a charming time can be had walking the paths that interconnect the
settlements and exploring the shops. Wintertime can be pleasant with
few visitors (no crowds) and gentle weather (a mixture of sunny and
overcast days with temperatures reaching 70F or 20C and lows near 45F
or 10C). Summertime temperatures reach 40C or 110F. Visitors can take
ferry boats to the central island(s) to visit the new land and soak in
hot springs. There's even a submarine for underwater viewing (not in
service during the winter months). Santorini can be reached by plane from
Athens or by ferry from
Piraeus and during summer time also from other islands.
