Karterados village
Karterados village lies almost at the center of Santorini, approximately 2 km from Fira. Its existence dates back to the 17th century and in the 19th century it was a glorious, prosperous settlement where captains built their stately homes. It overlooks a long green valley with vineyards and the east shores of the island. The road from Karterados leads to Karterados or Exo Gialos beach, a remote beach with black volcanic pebbles and dark blue, crystal-clear waters.
