Best Castle in Greece

M	Marcus Hurley on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you are visiting this as a destination in itself then you'll be sadly disappointed. The castle is at the summit of the hill in Akrotiri and is free to enter and open 24 hours. There is no onsite information about it and it is basically a jumble of rocks, building materials and a few walls, nothing to mark it out as in any way a 'castle'. There are nice views from the top though, it is lit up at night and it is only a few minutes walk from some nice restaurants. Apparently there was a lot more to the castle but it was badly damaged in an earthquake in the 1950's. It could be developed as an attraction but it's pretty much abandoned.

H	Harry Zisakis on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's a place you must see. It's considered to be the unexplored part of the island. There won't be many tourists... Its peaceful n beautiful. Great pictures can be taken from the top of the castle. The castle is partly restored but it's in good condition. It used to be the castle of Akrotiri since the Venetian Era. 15th century. U can park around the village plus u can enjoy some drinks n food in the main square of the village. Follow me on Instagram at Platinum_santorini for more info n tours.

G	Greg Eather on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Interesting place. The castle is a sight to see. The views are great from the top
M	Melissa Stansfield on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great view point, however, no information on the castle at all. Big parking location nearby with a short walk up hill via some steps.
R	Rachel C on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It’s a nice little ruins of a castle. You have to hike up to it, but there are wonderful views of both sides of the island once you’re up there. It’s a mix of the classic whitewash paint, old dark stone ruins, and then the sea and Greek flag. Great for photos and for people who like to explore. It would be great if they’d restore it!
D	Dan A on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fun little adventure exploring this little castle in Akrotiri. I walked by one morning around 8:30a and it was locked up but happened to be open this afternoon after lunch. Only takes 20 minutes or so to walk around and take some pics up high over looking both sides of the island. Beautiful pics of a little chapel as well.
