Directions
We are located in Karterados, the first village you will pass when heading south from Fira town, the capital of the Santorini island. Coming from Fira town, after about 15 minutes of walk you will get to the fork at Multimedia market/ Zotos bakery. There you take the downhill road on your left and continue all the way down for about 5-7 minutes. You will pass a police station, a windmill, 2 mini markets. Still continue all the way downhill until you see 2 tennis courts, Caveland sign and vineyards!
To get to Karterados with a local bus is very easy, we are the second last stop before Fira town (island’s capital) of every bus coming from any location in the South of the island. If you take a local bus, you purchase your ticket inside the bus. The fare is €2.20 from Athinios port and €1.60 from Thira airport. These buses are scheduled in direct accordance with the ferry and plane schedules. They are operated by ‘KTEL’ and are typically a blue/green color. In Karterados you get of at ZOTOS bakery and then you just follow the walking instructions. ASK THE DRIVER TO STO[P AT ZOTOS IN KARTERADOS.
If you take a taxi, ask them to bring you to "tennis club", which is the name CAVELAND used to have from the early 80's and is well known to local taxi drivers. You should not pay more than €15 one way. Another option is to rent a vehicle immediately upon arrival and drive yourself here. Rental prices vary depending on vehicle model and rental agency, but you can expect a price between €20 and €40.
Walking from Fira Town's central bus station to CAVELAND is yet another option available to you. It is free and a perfect first adventure on Santorini for the 'Do-It-Yourself" traveller. The trip takes about 20 minutes.
