VivianK Posted June 4, 2012 #1 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Will be there 10/8/12. Hoping to get on a very early tender and cable car. After taking a taxi to Oia, will the shops be open? Thank you for your feedback Vivian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted June 4, 2012 #2 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Well, 10/8 would be the shoulder season so things start to change. We were just in Oia in late March and at least half the shops opened around 9. Others opened a little later (9:30 - 10) and some were not even open since it was somewhat pre-season. I should add that we used the bus both ways with no problems. Hank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on one of the first tenders, got on the cable car very quickly, and also walked over to the bus station. When we arrived in Oia about 20 minutes later, everything was open. We even enjoyed a good gyro right at the bus drop-off point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelcat2 Posted June 4, 2012 #5 Share Posted June 4, 2012 We were also there last month and found most of the stores open at 9:00 a.m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
