Travel Guide

How to Get There

Santorini is reachable by plane or ferry from Athens and other Greek islands. Seasonal international flights may operate directly during tourist season. Ferries connect Santorini with the Cyclades and mainland ports.

Transport on the Island

The island runs a network of public buses linking main towns. Taxis are available but can be limited during peak hours. Renting a car or ATV gives greater flexibility but follow local rules and avoid narrow lanes at busy times.

Accommodation Tips

Book early for peak season. Consider staying in smaller towns for quieter evenings and better value. Many hotels offer caldera views; check room orientation if the sunset view is a priority.

Safety & Local Customs

Carry sun protection and stay hydrated in summer months. Respect local customs and dress modestly when visiting religious sites. Most businesses accept card payments, but smaller establishments may prefer cash.
