Most romantic destinations in Santorini

Oia - That's right. A breathtaking coastal delight for every couple, with scenery of boundless beauty and the most serene sunsets you've ever laid your eyes. Imagine a postcard-perfect sunset over snow-white houses and blue-domed churches. With this image in mind, it's easy to see why this is one of Santorini's must-see spots for couples! Although, the huge crowds milling around the viewpoint aren't the height of romance. So, head to the ruins of the Byzantine castle for a relaxing alternative, you'll learn a heap of history as the sky transforms into pools of colour.

Akrotiri makes for a fantastic excursion during a couple's holiday. Situated directly south of the modern town of Akrotiri in southwest Santorini, this well-preserved prehistoric site boasts an ancient Minoan settlement. Renowned for its extraordinary frescoes, the archaeological site offers a captivating glimpse into history. Explore the Venetian castle, admire the impressive church of Agios Nikolaos, and take in the charm of a traditional windmill. Don't miss the opportunity to dine in one of the local restaurants, where you can enjoy impressive sea views and romantic settings.
