Ever since I traveled to Santorini, I consider the island to be one of the most lovely places on the planet. Every brand-new corner seems more picturesque than the last and images will never be able to capture its enchanting atmosphere. If you're still pondering whether to include Santorini to your container list, here's 7 reasons that you need to visit the Greek island.

1. Due to the fact that of the sundown in Oia

Hands down, among my favourite moments in Greece was having the ability to witness the Santorini sundown. 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 good spot. The crowds can be a bit of a problem and the last thing you desire is to be running to discover an area, dodging photos whilst at the same time attempting to take your own before the sun disappears (existed, done that).

If the crowds show too much, and you would prefer somewhere a little quieter, another sunset spot is Imerovigli. Once again, it provides a beautiful, continuous view of the sundown.

However in all sincerity, you can't really have a bad sundown in Santorini. It's sort of wonderful anywhere you are.

There are a few methods to navigate the island: renting a cars and truck, ATV, taxi or bus. Nevertheless, taxis can get pricey and buses provide you less time flexibility. Roads are mainly cobble-stoned, narrow and Grecian chauffeurs are insane (however exceptionally talented), which leaves us with renting an ATV. Renting an ATV, also called a quad bike, is the best and most popular method to get around the island, particularly thanks to the high hills and heat that make it an extensive task walking from point A to B. Plus it's A Lot enjoyable, guarantee.

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

It's a terrific and enjoyable way 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.

4. Because of the special beaches

Santorini is not understood for its beaches, so don't expect the normal white sand & crystal clear water view that you generally connect 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. Nevertheless, this makes them unique and some choose them to the common white sand beach, that makes them well worth a see. Here's a few I 'd suggest.
