Santorini Tours
Perhaps the most special island of the Cyclades is
Santorini, or Thira for those who prefer it. There are 9 beaches you should
swim in Santorini 2023 and you can visit them with Santorini Tours. Its
beauties are infinite and famous enough: the volcano, the sunset, the white
houses, the view from the caldera make up a scene that attracts visitors from
all over the world like a magnet! BUS
TOURS SANTORINI
The beaches of Santorini are truly unique due to the
peculiar geological landscape that in contact with the sea becomes even more
impressive. The special waters of the volcano and the recently formed complex
seabed create, in combination with the colorful rocks of the land, an almost
out of this world scenery.
1. Red Beach
Let’s start from the most famous beach of the island located
at the southern end of the island, the legendary Red Beach. Its immense fame no
doubt also reflects its insurmountable beauty, an explosive combination of red
and black rocks, dark blue crystal waters, red sand alternating with black
pebbles and underwater hot springs. It is relatively small so it is usually
full of people.
Don’t forget to take the appropriate sun and heat protection
with you, as the temperature here is usually higher than the rest of the
island. Among its disadvantages is the access ban issued by the authorities due
to landslides, which is why those who visit it do so at their own risk.
2. White Beach
Very close to Red Beach is White Beach. It is a welcoming
cove surrounded by tall, white cliffs, with black sand mixed with white pebbles
and crystal clear waters. Its special feature is its white color which
contrasts with the dark or reddish colors found on the rest of the beaches of
the island.
Here you will find a canteen to get the necessary supplies.
Do not miss under any circumstances to visit the nearby archaeological site of
Akrotiri, one of the most important prehistoric settlements of the Aegean that
was buried under the ash of the Thera volcano.
3. Vlychada beach
At the southernmost tip of the island is Vlychada, a long beach
with characteristic yellowish rocks and caves that have been carved by time and
waves. The coast has fine black sand and dark pebbles. Here you will find
umbrellas and a picturesque beach bar built into the rocks, while above the
harbor where small boats are moored there are taverns for food.
4. Kamari beach
A little further north, under the Mesa Vounos where the
ancient Thera was built, is Kamari, the rival awe of Perissa. It brings
together some of the most typical characteristics of Santorini beaches: black
sand with pebbles, wonderfully clear and deep waters, cafes, taverns, clubs,
mini markets, tourist offices, etc. Despite the crowds, Kamari remains one of
the largest and most charming beaches in island.
5. Monolithos beach
We remain on the eastern coastline, where a little north of
Kamari we will meet Monolithos. It is a beautiful beach with black sand – no
pebbles this time – and relatively shallow waters, a true paradise for family
outings. It also has all the amenities, taverns, cafes, hotels, mini markets
and everything a bather could need.
