The island of Santorini is famous for its beaches with colorful sands that come from volcanic rocks on the eastern and southern sides of the island, as well as the sandy and smooth pebbly beaches on the western and northern sides of the island.
The Black Sand Beaches along the coast of the villages Perissa, Perivolos, Monolithos, and Kamari, is the most frequented of all Santorini Beaches. Perissa Beach and Kamari Beach offer a wide selection of hotels, rooms for rent, and apartments, as well as a number of seaside restaurants and cafés. The beaches are organized and provide a variety of water sports facilities, umbrellas, and sunbeds.
The White and Red Beach near Akrotiri, are two stunning Santorini Beaches, located beneath dramatic cliffs. The White Beach can be reached by excursion boat, but it is well worth the trip.
The beaches of Armeni and Amoudi are situated below the settlement of Oia and are quite popular. Amoudi Beach is one of the most charming Santorini Beaches, with clean and clear waters, a small harbor and several quaint fish restaurants and cafés.
Vlychada Beach from the south of Santorini, is a wonderful place to relax, as it is one of the less frequented beaches. Other lovely beaches are Vourvoulos and Baxedes, which are ideal if you prefer to swim at a secluded beach or if you are on family holidays with children.
