Since I took a trip to Santorini, I consider the island to be among the most lovely locations worldwide. Every brand-new corner appears more attractive than the last and photos will never be able to capture its enchanting atmosphere. If you're still contemplating whether to include Santorini to your bucket list, here's 7 reasons that you need to visit the Greek island.

1. Since of the sunset in Oia

Hands down, among my preferred moments in Greece was having the ability to witness the Santorini sunset. It's the only sunset on the planet I've seen that gets a round of applause once it subsides. Get down there early though (at least half an hour) Santorini tours prices for a great spot. The crowds can be a little a nightmare and the last thing you want is to be running to find a spot, evading pictures whilst all at once Santorini top tours attempting to take your own before the sun vanishes (existed, done that).

If the crowds prove excessive, and you would choose somewhere a little quieter, another sunset area is Imerovigli. Again, it offers a gorgeous, uninterrupted view of the sundown.

But in all sincerity, you can't actually have a bad sundown in Santorini. Santorini luxury tours It's kind of wonderful anywhere you are.

There are a few ways to get around the island: leasing a car, ATV, taxi or bus. Nevertheless, taxis can get pricey and buses provide you less time flexibility. Roadways are primarily cobble-stoned, narrow and Grecian motorists are crazy (however incredibly skilled), which leaves us with renting an ATV. Leasing an ATV, also referred to as a quad bike, is the very best and most popular way to navigate the island, especially thanks to the steep hills and heat that make it a strenuous task strolling from point A to B. Plus it's SO much fun, pledge.

Depending on the season, size and kind of your ATV it might cost anywhere from 25 to 40 euros for 24 hours. Plus around 8-10 euros each day for fuel, based on a 200cc ATV.

It's a wonderful and enjoyable method to see the island by yourself terms and time. Absolutely a must-do whilst in Santorini, simply make sure to have a drivers license with you.

3. Due to the fact that you can red wine & dine with a view

Oia

With spectacular views sweeping over the Aegean Sea and caldera, Santorini will entirely exceed any expectations you have of "supper with a view" with the surroundings that surrounds you.

If you're searching for restaurants that wed incredible views Santorini tours booking with scrumptious cuisines, popular ones include Ambrosia, 1800 and Lauda in Oia, Archipelagos and V Lounge in Fira, and Kapari White Wine Restaurant in Imerovigli.

4. Due to the fact that of the special beaches

Santorini is not understood for its beaches, so don't expect the common white sand & crystal clear water view that you usually associate with Greece. The beaches are volcanic, not white sand, so they're either red or black rocks, pebbles or grit, and get really hot on the feet. However, this makes them special and some choose them to the normal white sand beach, that makes them well worth a go to. Here's a few I 'd recommend.

Red Beach: The 'famous' beach of Santorini. It has black and red volcanic pebbles rather of sand and hot water. Make sure to use closed shoes (no thongs or shoes) as the walk in can be slippery and the sand gets very hot.

The sand is black and the waters are deep and blue, with activities such as diving readily available. There's close-by coffee shops, bars, dining establishments, stores and supermarkets, as well as a dynamic night life which makes it a more popular traveler destination.
