Fira is the heart and lifeblood of the island also the largest city on the island.

Red Beach

Oai

Oai is where you will find all the action and many of the iconic landmarks are located. The blue church domes are speckled in amongst the contrasting white buildings .

Getting Here- it was a 30 minute flight from Athens. Aegean Airlines offered a great price and as a bonus had the most attractive flight attendants I’ve ever seen.

Santorini Map

Where to stay map shows you all the best places. I state in middle, left which was pretty centrally located. If I come back again I would stay up north in the town of Oia. Don’t get me wrong my hotel was amazing and it was very private, upscale and went above and beyond.
