More info about Pyrgos
The area of Pyrgos also boasts several beautiful religious buildings. The churches of Agia Theodosia, Holy Trinity, and Koimisis tis Theotokou all lie within the village. However, the Monastery of Prophet Elias is probably the most noteworthy structure of the region. It sits close to the village and is home to an Icons and Relics Collection. The collection includes ecclesiastic objects, pieces of artwork, and books.
Furthermore, Pyrgos is surrounded by vineyards and hosts some of the best wineries in Santorini. Guests have the opportunity to learn about the history and production of the island's volcanic wines as well as taste densely flavored local wines.
In terms of tourist infrastructure, the village provides several accommodation options for travelers to choose from. The most common lodging types available in the area include lovely villas, hotels, and suites. Since the settlement is situated relatively close to the lively Fira and Oia villages, it is the perfect choice for individuals who seek tranquility but not isolation. Moreover, the village proposes beautiful restaurants and cafes, as well as tourist shops.
Lastly, since it is situated on a hill, Pyrgos doesn't have its own beach. However, the infamous Kamari and Perivolos organized beaches are just a 15-minute drive away.
