Advantages: beautiful scenary, black sand, Aegean sea, Vulcano, rich history Disadvantages: bus connections
hand and a cell phone in the other, somewhere between there is a wheel. But I believe this is a part of a unique Greek experience. A drive normally costed me some 1.50 euro.
Boates: I took a boat when I visited the Vulcano and Thirasia (island), everything was organised. Finding offers to go on such little trips isn't hard at all. You can find them on every step, especially because the vulcano is one of Santorinis popular attractions.
2.)SIGHTSEEING
- The Vulcano: To get there you have to go by boat. I have never been on a vulcano before so I pictured it differently. The walk there (to the top) at 12:00am in the hot sun was a killer! I recommend you take a drink, sunglasses and a hat with you. But it's worth the trip!

Restaurants, hotels, houses and hoilday properties are situated (perched on the cliff face) to take advantage of the view of the sunset over the Caldera.
Ia seems an exspensive place to stay for a holiday on Santorini but it is worth while taking a day trip there; it is a very photogenic place to visit. You ...

Advantages: no mosquitos low key nightlife excellent beaches Disadvantages: none
Me and my husband always wanted to visit santorini famous for its volcanic black course sand and breattaking scenary not to mention visiting some of the beatiful churches which are used on most greek postcards.
We finally went last year with our 2 children to a resort called perivolos and stayed in a place called eleferia apartments. Now the journey time from thira airport was 45 minutes but wow to watch the scenery go by i was in heaven, the tour rep gave lost of interesting facts like there were over 2 hundred churches on their tiny island many are built for heroes of war or unreturning sailors and that they also believe the lost city of atlantis lies deep bellow the sea once being part of their lovely island.
Perivolos beach is a long narrow beach full of umbrellas and sunbeds with lots of bars tavernas and shops and very child ...
