Travel Tips
- 1Stay in Oia for the famous sunsets but book 3+ months ahead — rooms fill up by February for summer.
- 2Rent an ATV instead of a car; the winding roads and limited parking make ATVs far more practical.
- 3The black sand beaches (Perissa, Perivolos) are free and far less crowded than the caldera viewpoints.
- 4The Fira to Oia hike (10km) is best done before 9am — bring at least 1.5L of water per person.
