Spring dives in spring 2025
Santorini is not famous for its beaches, perhaps because they are very different from the others we find in the rest of Greece, due to their particular geographical characteristics. Red and black volcanic pebbles, combined with steep rocks, create an eerie atmosphere and, at times, require a bit of climbing.
The Red Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches of Santorini. Also, there is the alternative and well-organized beach of Perissa, with its black sand. Agios Georgios, just 3 km. from Perissa, is one of the most touristy beaches, while Perivolos is the largest on the island, with black sand. Finally, there is the White Beach, with black pebbles on the coast and the surrounding white slopes.

Walk in the caldera
Santorini’s commercial development is concentrated on the Caldera coast, on the west side of the island with houses, villas, and hotels offering unobstructed views of the crater and the sea.
Fira, the island’s bustling capital, runs north through Firostefani (15 minutes from Fira on foot) and Imerovigli which is the highest point on the Caldera coast (about half an hour’s walk from the center of Fira).
The path that passes through these villages is full of expensive hotels, restaurants, and of course, endless spots to take unique photos!
These three settlements attract the most visitors along with the stunning village of Oia in the northern part of Santorini.
Go a little further from the Caldera
The east coast of Santorini is less well-known than the famous west coast. The eastern seaside resorts like Kamari and Perissa have a more traditional island lifestyle, and you will also meet many locals here.
The coast of Santorini at this point is covered with black, volcanic sand, while in the southern part, there is the famous red beach, a favorite destination for both swimming and photography.
Don’t forget to visit Pyrgos which is a traditional village with delicious food and charming alleys to walk through!
