The Wine Island
The five islands that form Santorini were created through volcanic activity, making this crescent-shaped jewel a scenic marvel in the Aegean Sea.
An active volcano (not to worry, the last big eruption was more than 3,000 years ago) as well as a dream romantic destination, Santorini’s stunning scenery is legendary. Villages and vineyards perch in volcanic cliffs overlooking a crystal-blue sea, and dazzling sunsets end each day in a golden glow.
Santorini hotels are open seasonally, April through October.

More About Santorini
Overview
Santorini is a treasure found in the south Aegean Sea, formed from a volcano that created a caldera offering breathtaking views. You will notice that the houses are whitewashed with blue doors and that the churches have blue domes. The capital of Santorini is Fira, where you will find local artisans, boutiques, and dining. As with many Greek islands, Santorini offers numerous beaches, like Perivolos Beach covered in black sand and Red Beach near hills that seem to jump into the sea. Explore Akrotiri, which is an Aegean settlement dating back to the Bronze Age. Santorini offers its own world-renowned wineries, which are characterized by the volcanic soils and sun-kissed climate of the Cyclades. The most beautiful sunsets can leave you awestruck as you visit Oia, a lovely village to conclude your Greece getaway.
Planner
In July and August, the Cyclades are crowded and less personal and more expensive than they are at other times of the year. Walkers, nature lovers, and devotees of classical and Byzantine Greece would do better to come in spring and fall, ideally in late April through June or September through October, when temperatures are lower and the islands are less tourist-riddled. In late March the islands begin to burst with thousands of varieties of wildflowers, and sprightly crimson poppies dapple stern marble blocks; the sea begins to warm up for comfortable swimming in late May. Autumn's days are shorter, but the sea remains alluringly swimmable well into October. Autumn travel to the islands also brings rustic pleasures: grapes are pressed in September, and zesty olives are gathered and fields plowed in October.
Top Experiences
Sunset in Oia : This will be a tourist heavy activity, but the sunsets and views are amazing. If it is too busy, try Imerovigli instead.
Black Sand Beaches : Try Perivolos and Perissa for an enjoyable day at the beach with lots of amenities. The areas are lined with cafes, shops, restaurants, and beach bars.
Ancient Thira : The remains of an ancient city that was inhabited 2,000 years ago. You can drive the narrow road with many hairpin turns or take a bus from Kamari so you don’t have to worry about the drive.
Akrotiri Archaeological Site : An ancient Minoan settlement that was destroyed by a volcanic eruption in the 16th century B.C. It was buried in ash like Pompeii in Italy. Modern excavation has been ongoing since 1967. Many beautiful frescoes and objects have been found.
Boat tour : Sunset cruise or afternoon excursion in the caldera of Santorini. Many offer dinner, drinks and possibly the chance to go swimming or snorkeling.
