Ten things to do in Santorini

Ahhh Santorini… That dreamy island with whitewashed villages, blue domes and sunsets that make your jaw drop. If you’re planning a trip (or just daydreaming for now), here are ten things you won’t want to miss. 1. Watch the sunset in Oia It’s iconic for a reason. Find a good spot early (it gets busy!) and soak up that golden glow as the sun sinks into the sea. It’s a pinch-me moment. 2. Wander the streets of Fira Fira is full of charm — think little boutiques, local tavernas and those postcard-perfect views around every corner. It’s great for a mooch and a glass of something chilled. 3. Take a boat trip to the volcano Sail across the caldera, hike up the volcano (yes, it’s still active!), then cool off in the hot springs nearby. It’s a brilliant way to see the island from the water. 4. Visit the black sand beaches Santorini’s beaches aren’t your usual white sands — they’re volcanic and dramatic. Head to Perissa or Kamari for a day of sunbathing with a twist. 5. Try a wine tasting Santorini’s wine scene is surprisingly fab! Pop into a local vineyard and try their signature crisp Assyrtiko. The views aren’t bad either! 6. Explore Pyrgos village Less touristy and totally lovely. Pyrgos has a peaceful, traditional vibe, with winding alleys, cute cafés and stunning hilltop views. 7. Hire a quad bike and explore It’s such a fun way to get around. Zoom off to hidden spots, quiet beaches and tiny villages at your own pace. 8. Visit the ruins at Akrotiri Into history? This ancient city was buried by a volcanic eruption and gives serious Pompeii vibes. Fascinating and totally worth a visit. 9. Enjoy a sunset dinner with a view There’s nothing quite like sipping local wine and sharing Greek meze as the sun goes down. Pure magic. 10. Just slow down and soak it all in Honestly, Santorini is one of those places where you just want to breathe it all in. Relax, wander, enjoy the moment. It’s all part of the magic. Fancy seeing it for yourself? I’d love to help you plan your own slice of Santorini. Whether it’s a romantic escape, a honeymoon, or a chilled-out break with friends — I’ve got the perfect itinerary waiting. Love, Danielle x
