Known as the most romantic island in the world, Santorini is a volcanic island in the Aegean Sea. The island is famous for its breathtaking sunsets, white-washed villages perched on the edge of steep cliffs, and the iconic blue-domed churches. Santorini is a popular tourist destination and is home to a large number of hotels, restaurants, and bars.
I had always wanted to visit Santorini, and my wish came true on my honeymoon. We stayed at the Four Seasons, which is perfect if you want to experience that luxury in a more romantic atmosphere. The views of the Aegean Sea are just unreal and the sunsets were out of this world. I cannot wait to go back again! Everything about Santorini where perfectly made for every occasion. Prices are very low from tickets to get and move over there to restaurants and activities. It was so quiet and peaceful in the town of Santorini and there were no cars or masses of people around. Which was something we really needed!

I love Greece and there are lots of beautiful Greek islands, but Santorini is a special place. Its black beach, blue skies, and brightly colored houses create some visual experiences that are hard to find elsewhere in the world.
The food is great and people tend to be friendly too, as pretty much always in Greece. I am a fan of simple things like freshly baked bread with Tzatziki, a proper Greek salad (how do the vegetables taste so good here!?), and grilled meats like Souvlaki. As a teenager, I was also a fan of the anise-flavored drink Ouzo, but I can't say that I enjoy it anymore. Luckily there are plenty of decent beers that are perfect in the sun.

Article from April 2024 with 4 places
One of the best places to visit in April is Santorini, a volcanic island in the Aegean Sea. Since the summer rush is still far off, one can see the island’s famous blue-domed churches and whitewashed houses and enjoy its sunsets in peace. Furthermore, the average temperature is around 17 degrees Celsius, making outdoor activities pleasant.
It is also famous for its unique wine varieties grown on the volcanic soil, and visiting a local winery is an absolute must. Akrotiri and Ancient Thera, the island’s two archaeological sites, are two other places I would recommend.
While you should be ready for rain and the seawater will still be too cold for a swim, pickpockets might take advantage of the crowded streets, the overall safety is high. It should also be mentioned that the island is all that remains of a massive volcano, which created a geological caldera, a view that is especially mesmerizing at Oia when the sun sets and paints the whitewashed town's gold. Consequently, Santorini offers an interesting mix of nature, history, and some of the best wines.
