What to see in Santorini

Santorini, a Greek island in the Aegean Sea, is a postcard-perfect paradise. Known for its iconic whitewashed buildings, dramatic sunsets and crystal-clear waters, it's a dream destination. Explore charming villages, uncover ancient history and relax on stunning beaches while savouring local cuisine and world-famous wines. Santorini is pure enchantment.

Begin your journey by exploring the ancient ruins of Akrotiri, often referred to as the "Minoan Pompeii" due to its well-preserved state. This archaeological site offers a fascinating glimpse into the Bronze Age civilisation that thrived on Santorini around 4,000 years ago. Akrotiri was buried under layers of volcanic ash during the catastrophic eruption of the island's volcano, which left it remarkably preserved. As you wander through the site, you'll encounter a network of streets, multi-story buildings and intricate frescoes that provide insight into the daily life and architecture of the time.

Santorini’s volcanic soil and unique microclimate create the perfect conditions for producing exceptional wines. The island is renowned for its indigenous grape varieties, including Assyrtiko, Athiri and Aidani, which yield some of the finest wines in Greece. A delightful way to immerse yourself in the island's wine culture is to visit one of the many Santorini wineries near the port. Many vineyards offer wine tours and tastings, allowing you to savour the island's unique flavours and learn about its winemaking traditions.

For outdoor enthusiasts and those seeking awe-inspiring views, embarking on a hike along the caldera rim from Fira to Oia is an unforgettable experience. This scenic trek allows you to witness Santorini's iconic white-washed buildings, blue-domed churches and the shimmering sea from a unique perspective. The hike typically starts in Fira, the island's capital, and meanders along a well-marked trail that winds through charming villages and offers breathtaking vistas at every turn. Along the way, you'll encounter picturesque churches, quaint cafes and opportunities to pause and soak in the scenery.
