Santorini is actually a group of islands consisting of Thíra, Thirassiá, Asproníssi, Palea and Nea Kaméni. Beaches with volcanic black or red sand and clear blue waters make this an ideal holiday spot. With the famous Santorini sunsets, it’s no wonder that it’s one of the most romantic destinations.

3. Amoudi Beach

When the tourists descend on Santorini it can feel extremely busy, but this hidden little beach is the perfect place to escape all the madness. Quite possibly the bluest water you’ll ever see.

4. Skaros Rock

There’s a small hike to the top but it’s well worth it, with fantastic photo opportunities all along the way. This used to be one of the original forts that protected Santorini in the old days.

5. The Windmills in Oia and Fira

Dotted in between the traditional houses, a photo with one of the windmills is a must. Catch it when the sun is setting and it is a wonderfully iconic shot.

6. Akrotiri Lighthouse

One of the quieter places to enjoy an epic sunset. The lighthouse itself looks beautiful anytime during the day with the clear water behind it.
