Does anybody need an introduction about the most famous/the superstar of all islands in Greece? Or is enough to say: multicolored cliffs soar out of a sea-drowned volcanic crater plus all those white and blue small buildings? 🙂 I think I got my point, right?
According to the U.S. News & World Report travel rankings: Santorini is #1 in Best Island Vacations and #1 as Best Greek Islands.
With the slogan “All you want is Greece“, the Greek Tourism Minister Harris Theocharis is welcoming the tourism season of 2021 since May 2021. During the winter, Santorini has been almost covid-free, with just a few confirmed cases in the course of a couple of months. Businesses that operate in the tourism sector need to preemptively test their staff weekly. So what makes you feel safer than this? #covidfree #awareness #healthfirst
The uniqueness of the place makes most of us put it on our bucket list.
In few words: North of the island – capital Fira with the well-known villages called Firostefani and Imerovigli; this part along with the exclusive village of Oia, attract most tourists. #sunsetsinoia
Then there is the elevated West Coast, the East Coast that is less known – has a more traditional island-holiday look and also, more affordable; the beaches are lined with black sand. And of course, the South part of the island with multicolored sand beaches, the most famous being the Red Beach.
Santorini is actually an year-round destination. When you are free, regardless of the season, you will always find breathtaking views here. And a lot of deals. However the best time to visit is: September to October and April to May. The rest of the time, expect it to be windy and sometimes rainy.
What is there to do? Go on cruises, get a wine & food tour, practice sea sports, land activities such as walking, biking, sightseeing, cultural & theme tours, visit ancient Thira and why not: luxury & special occasions – maybe you want to get married on the beach or arrive to Oia in an helicopter. #naturelovers #winelovers #foodlovers #photographers #history
