- Akrotiri Beach and Bella Bay - These are two more beaches on the edge of the village of Akrotiri. Bella Bay seems to be te better of the two. It is situated at the entrance of the village when you head for the direction of the Faros lighthouse (so on the right hand side), next to a small parking where people can park their cars to enjoy the breathtaking views you have here over the vulcano crater. The beach is reached by steps. Akrotiri beach can be reached by car and is a bit further away from the village (close to ancient Akrotiri). It lies next to Red Beach and White Beach. It is a long pebble beach with quite large pebbles and rocks. There is a small cantina on the beach with a large terrace. Here you can order a drink or a simple snack. There is also one hotel. There is a bus connection to Akrotiri Beach. There are also a couple of "syrmata" on Akroriri beach, small houses that are caved into the rock. It looks like they were used to store boats in case of very bad weather.
