If you’re planning to visit Santorini this summer, add the village of Pyrgos to your to-do list. There’s more to Santorini than Oia, and Pyrgos is a hidden gem that’s well worth a visit! Pyrgos is the highest village on Santorini and has 360 degree views of the island (it’s an amazing place for sunset!). The village is beautiful and has none of the crowds you’ll find in Oia. It’s 19 km from Oia and you can get there by car or bus.
