SANTORINI PORT - ATHINIOS PORT - OLD PORT

  Santorini has two ports. Athinios port that is for ferry and commercial boats and the Old port that is only for cruise ship travelers. Athinios port is located in the area of Pyrgos where there is a car access and the Old port in Fira where the only way up and down to the town is the donkeys,  the cable car or to walk although we don't recommend walking.

All those people who take a ferry boat individually from the other islands or Piraeus, it is certain that they will dock in Athinios port and they are connections from Piraeus port (Athens), Ios, Naxos, Paros, Crete, Mykonos, Tinos and Syros islands.

The ferry from Pireaus takes 9 hours to come to Santorini and the best company we have travelled with is Blue Star Ferries. The ticket per person is no more than 30 euro per person depending the class you will choose to travel but the tourist class is equally great with the A' class.

Travel Advices
Water
Santorini is a volcanic island therefore there is no drinkable water. We drill the earth to get salty water which we desalinate and we use it to bath and cook. So, while you are in Santorini use bottled water that you can find everywhere in the local market and do not drink from the tab.

Transfers
It is very difficult to find a taxi or a bus at the airport or the port so make sure you will book a transportation before you come or you night find yourself waiting for hours in the heat and end up to overcharged.

Family Travel
Due to the unique structure of Santorini, if you have children under 12 years old we advise you to avoid the Caldera side of Santorini that is on the cliffs and prefer the beach hotels that are more safe and fun for your children.

No street names
In Santorini we do not have street name or addresses so make sure that you will have the phone number of your accommodation.
