Shop in Fira or Oia
Wander cobblestone streets lined with boutiques, handmade jewelry, Greek fashion, and art galleries. Great place to pick up local souvenirs.
Hike to the Heart of Santorini
Location: Near the Venetsanos Winery and Megalochori village, along a short trail on the caldera side Why it’s special: The natural rock formation features a heart-shaped hole framing the Aegean Sea — a popular spot for romantic photos, proposals, and elopement shoots Tip: Go in the late afternoon for beautiful lighting, but be careful — the path isn’t paved, so wear sturdy shoes
Ancient Megalochori Village
A peaceful hilltop village about 7 km southwest of Fira, Megalochori is known for its quiet, traditional charm—cobblestone lanes, bougainvillea-draped alleys, whitewashed Cycladic houses, and elegant neoclassical mansions. It’s a delightful escape from Santorini’s more crowded hotspots. In the heart of the village square, the iconic and picturesque bell tower, with its graceful arches and classic architecture is a favorite photo stop—especially in the soft glow of early morning or late afternoon.
