Ever since I traveled to Santorini, I think about the island to be among the most beautiful places in the world. Every new corner seems more attractive than the last and pictures will never have the ability to catch its enchanting atmosphere. If you're still pondering whether to include Santorini to your container list, here's 7 reasons why you need to go to the Greek island.

1. Because of the sundown in Oia

Hands down, among my favourite moments in Greece was having the ability to witness the Santorini sunset. It's the only sundown in the world I have actually seen that gets a round of applause once it subsides. Come down there early though (at least half an hour) for a great area. The crowds can be a bit of a headache and the last thing you want is to be running to discover a spot, evading images whilst simultaneously attempting to take your own prior to the sun disappears (been there, done that).

If the crowds show excessive, and you would prefer someplace a little quieter, another sunset area is Imerovigli. Once again, it offers a stunning, uninterrupted view of the sundown.

However in all honesty, you can't actually have a bad sundown Santorini tours booking in Santorini. It's kind of magical anywhere you are.

There are a couple of ways to get around the island: leasing an automobile, ATV, taxi or bus. However, taxis can get pricey and buses provide you less time versatility. Roadways are mostly cobble-stoned, narrow and Grecian motorists are crazy (but very gifted), which leaves us with leasing an ATV. Renting an ATV, also referred to as a quad bike, is the very best and most popular method to get around the island, specifically thanks to the steep hills and heat which make it an extensive job strolling from point A to B. Plus it's SO much fun, promise.

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

It's a terrific and enjoyable method to see the island on your own terms and time. Absolutely a must-do whilst in Santorini, simply ensure to have a drivers license with you.

3. Due to the fact that you can white 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 "dinner with a view" with the landscapes that surrounds you.

If you're searching for restaurants that marry divine views with tasty 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 unique beaches

Santorini is not known for its beaches, so don't anticipate the typical white sand & crystal clear water view that you typically relate to Greece. The beaches are volcanic, not Santorini day tours white sand, so they're either red or black rocks, pebbles or grit, and get really hot on the feet. However, this makes them distinct and some prefer them to the typical white sand beach, that makes them well worth a check out. Here's a few I 'd recommend.

Red-Beach-of-Akrotiri-Santorini

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 exceptionally hot.

Kamari: A cosmopolitan beach resort situated on the southern part of Santorini, best next to Perissa, with the huge rock called Mesa Vouno in between them. The sand is black and the waters are deep and blue, with activities such as diving offered. There's close-by cafes, bars, dining establishments, stores and supermarkets, as well as a dynamic nightlife which makes it a more popular tourist destination.
