15 Unmissable Things To Do In Santorini
Santorini is the dreamy, romantic, drop-dead
gorgeous bucket list location that better be on
everyones list. We visited Santorini for our
honeymoon (as cliché as we could be). We saw a
few other Greek islands but hands down
Santorini is the winner! There are so many things
to do in Santorini that you are bound to have a
great time. The island is intimately small
allowing visitors to easily explore every corner
while enjoying the views of the breath-taking
Aegean Sea. And by breath-taking, I mean your
jaw will be open in absolute amazement. In this
blog you will find almost all-important things
you HAVE to do in Santorini. Put on your comfy
shoes and a photo-op-worthy outfit were going
to explore Santorini!

LIST
1. TAKE A YACHT RIDE TO THE VOLCANIC
ISLANDS Sounds fancy, doesnt it? Taking the
yacht ride was one good decision and we highly
recommend it. You can sign up for a tour (there
are too many options to choose from) or you can
take a private boat and sail by yourself (taking
a private boat will mean a deep hole in your
pocket) The tour generally takes you around the
volcanic island where you can see an active
volcano, swim in a hot spring, watch the Red
Beach, Lighthouse,etc This tour is available
through various vendors with a variety of options
like duration (4-8 hours), budget (ranging from
80-1400 Euros per person) and mood (romantic,
party, adventure, etc). These rides happen in two
shifts one is in the morning and one is for the
sunset (personally the sunset slot is more
romantic). Click here to know more

2. WINE NOT? Wine production in Santorini is an
ancient tradition and its not a secret that the
volcanic soil produces a unique taste of
wine. You can opt for a wine tour or get there
yourself. If you take the tour, your tour
operator will take you around a couple of
different wineries and explain the history and
the wine making process followed by wine tasting
(honestly, most of these places are similar so
going to any one or two winerys would
suffice). If you want to explore on your own
,which we recommend, you could go to Santo Wines
and/or Venetsanos winery. They not only have
great wine and winemaking tour but also
breathtaking views. Click here to know more

3. SANTORINI HELICOPTER TOUR This is pretty
close to unforgettable. A wonderful tour above
Santorini, the volcano, the caldera, and all the
villages perched along the cliff. If youre going
to Mykonos you can also do a helicopter transfer
between Santorini and Mykonos which is fun,
easy, and way faster than the ferry. 4. JET SKI
TOUR TO THE VOLCANO An insanely fun and unique
way of seeing the caldera. There are different
tours that go different places all leave from
Perivolos in the south of the island. The
shortest tour (South Tour) visits nearby Red
Beach and White Beach and lasts about 90
minutes. The medium-length (Volcano Tour, 140
minutes) goes all the way into the caldera and
stops for a swim in the hot springs by the
volcano. The longest tour (Extreme Volcano
Tour, 200 minutes) takes the volcano tour and
adds Thirassia and Ammoudi Bay. The tours that go
into the caldera are pretty intense and the waves
can be big. Theres a motorboat with the tour the
whole way so if someone needs a break they can
switch to the boat and one of the staff will ride
the jet ski.

5. SANTORINI KAYAK TOUR Wonderfully fun! The
Morning Tour and Sunset Tour explore the south
coast of Santorini (cool but you dont get to see
the caldera). The Lighthouse Tour goes into the
caldera and provides incredible views of the
caldera cliffs. The tour generally starts at
Akrotiri Beach. Most tour operators provide pick
up and drop-off service from your
accommodation. 6. WALK THE VOLCANO The island
in the middle of the caldera is Nea Kameni and
thats where youll find the islands active
volcano and the top point of interest in
Santorini. The crater is 130 meters up and takes
about 20 minutes to walk. Sulfur vents are found
along the way. The only way to get here is by
doing a volcano boat tour or hiring a chartered
boat.

7. SWIM AT AMMOUDI BAY One of the best
swimming spots on Santorini is down the cliff
from Oia at a spot just south of the Ammoudi
port. Walk or drive to Ammoudi Bay then take the
path that leads south from the restaurants in the
port (cant miss it, theres only one way to
go). Its a 5 minute walk to a small island
(Agios Nikolaos) that you can swim out to. Then
jump from the ledge (if you want). 8. SWIM IN
THE HOT SPRINGS Jump from the boat into the cold
water of the caldera then swim towards the warm
water of the volcanic hot springs, talk about
adventure and having fun! It never gets hot but
its warm enough to never feel the need to get
out. The only way to get to the hot springs is by
doing a boat tour.

9. RED BEACH Just down the road from the
Akrotiri ruins, Red Beach is the most spectacular
and picturesque of any Santorini beach. From the
bus stop or car park its about a 15 minute walk
to the beach. (Sometimes closed due to the risk
from falling rock, please check before you go and
proceed at your own risk.) 10. DRIVE OR RIDE
AROUND THE ISLAND. We drove around the entire
island, from one end to the other TWICE. We
stopped at a few beaches, ate lunch, took a
million photos and ended the day in Oia to watch
the sunset. Its such a liberating feeling to do
whatever you want and, in another country,
serious double whammy of freedom. No tour guides,
no waiting on public transportation. Talk about
an amazing moment If you do nothing else but this
while visiting Santorini, youll still have the
best damn time ever. This is such a must-do,
cant say it enough.

11. STAY AT A CAVE HOTEL ON THE
CALDERA Throughout all my travels, budgeting is
always necessary. So we generally dont spend too
much on accommodation, because you wont really
be using the hotel facilities if you are roaming
around the entire day. But we must admit,
Santorini is such an exception.We agreed that
staying in a beautiful hotel with the postcard
view of Santorini was a necessity. We chose Aqua
Luxury Suites couldnt be happier. The hotel is
truly paradise set the tone for our entire
experience. The staff was lovely, the rooms were
clean just enough space, and the VIEW was out
of this world! Also, they serve you breakfast
just outside your room on a private dining table
with a view to die for. For more details about
where to stay in Santorini, please click

right. You can stay in this windmill. Its the
Windmills Suite at Golden Sunset Villas in Oia
and its pretty incredible. It sits at the tip of
Oia where everyone gathers to watch the sunset
but you have this huge patio with incredible
views all to yourself (it can easily fit 20
people if you had friends staying nearby and
wanted to host a sunset party). The bad news
theres only one true windmill suite in
Santorini. So book early.

13.WATCH THE SUNSET FROM OIA FIRA This is a
requirement when traveling to Santorini no ifs
no buts about it. Both locations are prime time
sunset watching so pick your poison. We preferred
Fira over Oia because you can see the amazing
caldera on your right and a beautiful volcano in
front of you at the same time also you wont have
to pay for overpriced cocktails or fight for a
space to watch the sunset in Fira which is
definitely the case in Oia. Grab a drink or have
a meal while you enjoy the sun go down. 14.
GREEK FOOD This goes without saying, right? No
matter where youre traveling to, make it a high
priority to seek out delicious and authentic
food. Most meals are filled with fresh seafood,
fresh vegetables, olives and homemade hummus.
Dont fear, its not all healthy though! There
are delicious and not so healthy options like
Saganaki and Moussaka (which I highly recommend
ordering at every meal). Remember most places
consider seafood as vegetarian so please be
specific about what you want. Our top
recommendation has to be Luckys. Pito Gyros in
Oia is also good. Please click here to know more
about where to eat in Santorini.

15. EXPLORE ON FOOT! Last but certainly not
least, please relax and disconnect from the day
to day.two reasons why you must do this are
firstly, you have paid a considerable amount on
your amazing caldera accomodation and secondly,
there is no better way of exploring and place
than on foot. When on foot , you can explore the
tiny lanes, and pick up some cute souvenirs and
not to forget the beautiful pictures you will be
able to click! Enjoy each and every moment of
the trip because its so incredibly special and
breath-taking. If you find yourself in Santorini
or anywhere for that matter, be so thankful
grateful for that opportunity (some people will
never get it).
