Things to Do in Santorini. The Detailed Santorini Must-Do List

The village of Oia is undoubtedly the most beautiful and unusual city in Santorini. It is quite expensive, and not everyone can stay here, but everyone can come here for a day and enjoy the local beauties: Greece white houses, old mills, narrow interlocking streets, stone steps flowing one into another, flowers creeping on the walls, unforgettable landscapes and, of course, the volcanic caldera is a funnel formed as a result of the eruption.

At the edge of the Santorini caldera are the most expensive restaurants, but it is highly recommended things to do in Oia. Do not spare money and order at least a cocktail or coffee to sit at a table on the edge of the universe and think about the charms and wonders of this Aegean location.

Santorini island is not only about Fira and Oia but also about a dozen small towns and villages that have something to show you. Blue domes of Pyrgos, the magnificent beaches of Perissa, the archaeological museum of Akrotiri, the Red Beach, and many other attractions are waiting for you here.

It is not worth a lot if you want to relax in Santorini and save money, you should also pay attention to Perissa and Kamari because these are not only one of the most beautiful, but also the cheapest cities on the island. Prices for hotels, food, and entertainment here are at least 30% lower than in Fira and Oia, and you can get to them from here in less than an hour. So do not forget to put these places in your "What to do in Santorini" list.

Santorini sunsets are considered to be perhaps the most beautiful in the world, so they can be perceived as one of the attractions.

You can see the famous sunsets in Oia, Fira or at the Faros lighthouse. In the latter, unlike Fira and Oia, there are very few people, and the sunsets are no less magical, there also is a high probability that there will be no one at all except you.

💡 SantoriniDress team recommends:

• If you are thinking about Santorini outfits – put on closed clothing, so you do not get sunburned. It is also fresh weather in the evenings in the low season, so a jacket might come in handy.

• Do not forget the camera.

• Riding a bike or ATV is quite dangerous. Be careful on the road, any Santorini view is not worth your life.
