Places of Interest
We would definitely recommend Greek island hopping, where you can go to Mykonos from Athens and then to Santorini from Mykonos. The best area to stay in the island are towns of Oia, Fira, Firostefani or Imerovigli. Oia is the town that is the most popular, and hence, many pictures of Santorini that you must have seen are from Oia. The town is famous with its sunset, cafes, restaurants and of course, picturesque views.

The best activities to do in the island apart from enjoying the beach and delicious food, include hiking, and one of the best hiking routes can be walk from Fira to Oia. Goes without saying, hiking involves breathtaking views, that can be one of the best ones you have seen in your life.
Another famous activity in Santorini is taking a sunset cruise, that can be either a short cruise just to enjoy the view, or a long one up to 5 hours, where you can enjoy meal, drinks, snorkel and swim.
After a long day, enjoy a movie under the stars on the beach at Kamari Open Air Cinema with cooling drinks.
