Located in the northern part of Cozumel, the San Gervasio ruins are the island’s only preserved Mayan site and a must-visit for history enthusiasts. This archaeological complex was dedicated to Ix Chel, the Mayan goddess of fertility, midwifery, and medicine, and served as an important pilgrimage destination for Mayan women. Today, the site offers a fascinating glimpse into the ancient Mayan civilization, with well-preserved structures and a rich history to explore.

Perched on a hill and designed by the famous architect, Sigfrid Ericson, Masthugget Church is a striking landmark that holds both historical and architectural significance. It was built in 1914, and it represents the National Romantic style in Nordic architecture. It serves as a place of worship, as well as a cultural and community hub, hosting concerts and events. Due to its position, it also offers a panoramic view of the city and its harbour.

Venetian rule in Santorini extended from 1207 to 1580, and the last vestiges of this historical period live in the castles that dot the entire island. Five fortresses can be found in Santorini in Oia, Pyrgos, Emporio, Akrotiri, and Skaros, which have been partly demolished by the earthquakes that shook the island in the 15th and 16th centuries. Skaros is probably the most important and well-preserved among the five castles, built on the peak of the namesake rock to protect the village from pirate attacks. The ruins of the once magnificent fortress can be reached on foot from Agios Georgios church in Imerovigli, connected to Skaros by a 0,5 km walking trail and a long stairway.
