My 10 Reasons Why You Should Travel to Santorini

You can’t take pictures like this anywhere besides Santorini. The white and blue colors are perfect for your pictures and the view to the ocean makes it a 1000x prettier. Every little place on Santorini is incredibly photogenic. Believe me, I was there for one week and I took so many pictures.

All fish and seafood lovers will love Santorini. Greek moussaka and souvlaki are great too. There are tons of tavernas. You have to try this. You can also have a romantic candle-lit dinner in Oia or Fira. We also saw some marriage proposals :-D

You can find a lot of beaches in Santorini. Black sand, red sand, steep rock faces, beige and white sand. All the beaches with restaurants, cafes, sun beds, bars and watersports. A visit to the beach is a must.

Watching sunsets on Santorini was our ritual. Such a special moment is rare. You’ll read anywhere that Santorini is the best place for sunsets. Oia is the best place to watch the sun set. Thousands of people come here to watch it.

As mentioned above, the food on Santorini is awesome. Wine-lovers won’t disappointed. There are a lot of vineyards next to each other on Santorini. There are also wine & dine evenings. Santorini is the most visited tourist hotspot. There are smaller vineyards too. Since it doesn’t rain a lot and there’s a lot of volcanic landscape, the wine and food tastes great.

There are a lot of luxurious shops as well as shops with souvenirs, scarves, jewellry, lava rocks and statues. To all the bookworms out there, take a look at Atlantis Books in Oia.

For those vacationing in Santorini: you should rent a car and explore the island. We explored the island for hours and were astonished. The view was wonderful everywhere and really unique. It’s also relatively cheap to rent a car. Get more information here.

I think Santorini is perfect for a honeymoon. If you don’t want to travel too far for your honeymoon, Santorini is great. There are a lot of chic hotels, villas, restaurants and bars plus a great view! There is nothing more romantic then a dinner for two on a rooftop with the view of Oia and the ocean.

What can I say…you swim in a pool with only a steep cliff and the view around you. You feel like swimming between the sky and the ocean. It’s magical and you can’t compare it to anything else.

I can’t describe how beautiful it is to swim in your own Infinity Pool and have this incredible 360° view. The cliffs, the little hotels, and the blue ocean. I was so annoyed that we didn’t take our drone with us. The pictures would have been so perfect!
