The Ultimate Santorini Travel Guide: Experience Paradise in Blue and White!

✨ **Must-See Attractions**: 1️⃣ **Oia**—The world's most beautiful sunset is here! The setting sun dyes the blue-domed churches red. Every shot is postcard-perfect. We recommend getting there by 5pm to secure a spot. Don't forget to check in at the Three Blue Domes, a famous spot for photos! 2️⃣ **Fira**—The island's most prosperous town! Cliffside paths connect cafes and jewelry stores. We recommend taking the cable car down to the old port, then riding a donkey up the mountain (a super local experience!). 3️⃣ **Red Beach**—A volcanic rock-formed spectacle. The contrast between the crimson cliffs and the azure sea is stunning! But the road is steep, so wear non-slip shoes. Remember to bring a snorkeling mask for swimming (there are so many small fish underwater!). 🏝️ **Hidden Gems**: ▫️ **Boat trip to the volcanic island and hot springs**: Jump into the sulfur hot springs (your skin will become smooth!). Stop by the active volcano along the way. ▫️ **Wine tasting at sunset**: The cliffside terrace at Santo Wines winery, paired with a glass of local Assyrtiko white wine, is a must! 🍴 **Foodie Tip**: ▪️ You must try the fried tomato balls (Tomato Keftedes) and fresh octopus! ▪️ Cliffside restaurant recommendation: **Sunset Ammoudi** in Oia (seafood platter + Aegean Sea view). 💡 **Helpful Tips**: ✅ There are a lot of people during the peak season from May to September, so we recommend getting up early to take pictures! ✅ There are few buses on the island, so renting an ATV is the most convenient way to get around (approx. EUR 35/day). 📌 **Follow me** for the next episode, where I'll reveal Santorini's treasure B&Bs that cost EUR 100 per person!
