WHAT TO DO NEARBY
If you enjoy hiking and wish to get a closer look at the nature of Santorini, then the path starting from Pyrgos towards the monastery of Profitis Ilias is the perfect choice! Not only will you be hiking through a Natura 2000 Protected Area, but you will also get to enjoy magnificent panoramic views to the caldera, the entire island and the sea.
If you follow the path further you will reach the beach of Kamari or the beach of Perissa, passing from the archaeological ruins of Ancient Thera on the way. Close to Pyrgos, the tranquil Megalochori is a perfect destination for strolling around its scenic stone paved alleys, especially in the evenings.
If you are looking for a great beach for swimming, the closest beaches to Alaya Suites are Perissa, Perivolos and Kamari, whereas you can easily reach the beaches of Vlychada and the famous Red and White beaches.
