Top Cyclades Islands Pottery Classes

Grapes have grown and potters have worked on Santorini for thousands of years. Unleash your creativity and connect to the landscape and its heritage during this intimate experience that pairs local wines and spirits with the fine art of crafting clay on the potter’s wheel. Start with a winery tour and tasting; continue to create a piece of pottery; stay fueled with local wines, cheese, and liquor as you work.

More than a pottery class, this experience combines hands-on creativity with the relaxed seaside lifestyle of Paros. In one three-hour workshop, you’ll experience both pottery-wheel throwing and traditional coil hand-building using real ceramic clay. You’ll also paint and personalize a handcrafted polymer-clay keepsake prepared by your instructor, which will be ready to take home by the end of the experience. The open-air studio is just steps from Golden Beach, giving you the option to enjoy a refreshing swim during the workshop break. A complimentary coffee or glass of local wine adds to the relaxed island atmosphere. With no more than six participants, the workshop offers plenty of friendly, personal guidance and is suitable for complete beginners, couples, families with children aged 12 and older, friends, and solo travelers.
