Ten things you must do in Santorini
Panoramic sunset views, bathing in springs, and adventures through excavated cities...
Hand-made ceramic pieces sold by people who make them in Megalochori
1 Scuba dive. The island is a great place for beginners as shoals of exotic fish swim past just inches away.
2 Visit Megalochori and buy one-of-a-kind, hand-made ceramic pieces (right) sold by the people who make them.
3 Spend a day on a catamaran. Leave from Vlychada port and sail to the volcano of Nea Kameni.
4 Stay in a cave house. Scattered around the island, the former dwellings are now luxurious hotel rooms.
5 Watch the sun set as you dine. We recommend Aris in Fira for its stunning panoramic views.
Watch the sunset as you dine on delicious Greek food
6 Visit Art Space, in Exo Gonia, an art gallery, museum and winery all in one. Its owner offers guided tours.
7 Enjoy a tour of the Donkey Brewery and sample its three beers.
8 Visit the church of Panagia Episkopi, one of the island’s most beautiful houses of worship. Its ornate carvings and peaceful ambience is a perfect place to take a seat, light a candle
and reflect.
9 Go on a Caldera cruise – you’ll end up bathing in the thermal springs of Palea Kameni and swimming in 35?C waters.
10 Visit an excavated city. Prehistoric Akrotiri was once buried but has been recently reconstructed.
