Things to Do

Oia Village

Oia Village is Santorini’s most iconic and picturesque village, perched on the northern tip of the island. Famous for its whitewashed buildings, blue-domed churches, and narrow cobblestone streets, Oia offers breathtaking views of the caldera and the Aegean Sea, making it a favorite spot for photographers and travelers. Its charming alleys are lined with boutique shops, art galleries, and quaint cafés, creating an atmosphere that perfectly blends traditional Cycladic charm with modern luxury. Oia is also renowned for its legendary sunsets, drawing visitors from around the world to witness the sky ablaze with color over the caldera cliffs.

Excavations of Akrotiri

The Excavations of Akrotiri showcase one of the most remarkable Bronze Age settlements in the Aegean, often compared to Pompeii because it was suddenly buried in volcanic ash during a massive eruption around the 16th century BCE — but unlike Pompeii, no human remains have been found, suggesting most inhabitants escaped before the disaster.
Today, visitors can wander around the remains of the city, observe the narrow stone-paved streets and admire the ruins of the big squares, the houses that were made of mud and stones and the basements that were used as storages and workshops, while some of the significant objects that were found are exhibited at the Museum of Prehistoric Thera in Fira. Some famous wall paintings can also be admired in the National Archaeological Museum, in Athens.

Sunset Cruise

Experience a calm and romantic trip to the amazing sites of Santorini on a charming wooden sailing boat! The peaceful atmosphere and gentle rocking of the boat provide the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable getaway, allowing you to fully appreciate the beauty and tranquility of this iconic sunset and volcanic landscape.

Wine Tasting

Sip on Santorini wine and nibble on local bites during this small-group, half-day tour of the island and three of its wine estates. As you explore, learn about Santorini’s unique vine management techniques, discover local varieties such as assyrtiko, and taste at least 12 wines. Your tour includes a stop at a cliff-top winery, which offers spectacular views of the Aegean by day—and sunset if you’ve booked the sunset option.

Red Beach

Nestled near the ancient site of Akrotiri, Red Beach is one of Santorini’s most striking and unique coastal landscapes. Known for its dramatic red volcanic cliffs and rust-colored sand, the beach creates a stunning contrast against the deep blue waters of the Aegean Sea.

Accessible by a short walk along a rocky path, Red Beach offers a more adventurous, tucked-away feel. Its bold, natural beauty makes it a favorite for photos, sunset views, and a memorable day by the sea. While the shoreline is more rugged than traditional sandy beaches, its one-of-a-kind scenery makes it a must-visit destination on the island.

Restaurants

Afropsaro

On-Site Restaurant at Rocabella Santorini
Nestled along Santorini’s shoreline, Afropsaro combines stunning sea views with traditional Greek flavors. With locally sourced seafood, simple yet elegant plates, and the gentle rhythm of the waves nearby, it’s an inviting spot for an unforgettable dining experience.

Ammoudi Bay

Ammoudi Bay is a picturesque seaside harbor tucked beneath the cliffs of Oia, offering one of the most charming and scenic settings on Santorini. Surrounded by striking red volcanic cliffs and crystal-clear waters, the bay feels like a hidden escape just below the island’s iconic whitewashed villages.

Known for its fresh seafood tavernas lining the waterfront, Ammoudi Bay is the perfect place to enjoy a leisurely meal right at the water’s edge. Visitors can also take a short walk along the rocks to a popular swimming and cliff-jumping spot, or simply soak in the stunning sunset views that rival those from above in Oia.

Nobu

Set against the dramatic cliffs of Santorini, Nobu offers an unforgettable escape overlooking the sparkling Aegean. The serene design, glowing sunsets, and elevated dining experience create a perfectly intimate and awe-inspiring setting.

Shopping

Fabrica Shopping Center

Fabrica is one of Santorini’s most unique shopping destinations, blending history, local culture, and modern retail in the heart of Fira. It’s a must-visit spot if you’re exploring the island’s shops beyond the typical pedestrian streets.

Nightlife

Fira (Thira)

Nightlife in Fira (Thira), the vibrant capital of Santorini, offers a lively mix of energy and elegance set against breathtaking caldera views. As the sun sets, the town comes alive with chic cocktail bars, relaxed lounges, and upbeat clubs—all tucked along narrow, whitewashed streets.

Guests can start the evening with sunset drinks overlooking the Aegean Sea, then transition into a more energetic scene with DJs, dancing, and late-night crowds. Popular spots like Koo Club and Two Brothers Bar are known for their vibrant atmosphere, while smaller wine bars and terraces offer a more intimate experience.

Overall, Thira’s nightlife strikes a perfect balance—whether you're looking for a romantic evening under the stars or a lively night out celebrating into the early hours.
