Santorini fdn

If you think a visit to Santorini will be a relaxing and peaceful way to spend a vacation with loved ones, or perhaps with friends, you will only be partially right. It is true that Santorini's magic is first and foremost due to her breathtaking views, history, nature, and mythology. On the other hand, she is famous for something else: her unforgettable bacchanalian nightlife!

If you are in search of a Santorini vacation that is anything but cultural, you will not be disappointed--most beach parties start as early as the afternoon. The numerous bars and clubs on the beach provide a perfect way to release pent up stress. Monolithos, Perissa, Kamari have great beaches, bars, chalets and camping. However, the best party beach hands down remains Perivolos.

This beach is where you find the young crowd that between dips in the water and sunbathing, they can be found enjoying a bite to eat and many a beachside drink.

Beyond the full gamut of sports available, the beach also offers a limitless number of disco-bars full of hundreds of people.






Eating and drinking on Santorini Island are not necessarily as cheap as on some other Greek islands (or the mainland for that matter). But, if you’re prepared to sacrifice that stunning view of the caldera, you can drive the price of a night out down significantly.

In addition to Greek favorites like the usual assortment of 'mezedes', 'souvlaki', 'mousaka' and 'dolmades', island specialties include battered tomatoes (known as 'sutsukaki') and the ever-present 'gyros' (kebabs) - both of which are budget-friendly dishes.
Santorini tavernas also specialize in seafood, with the small beach bars and restaurants that line the coast in particular serving up the most amazing grilled fish (particularly prawn) dishes straight from the sea.

The island also has a great wine-growing tradition, stretching back centuries. The best of the island’s vineyards can be found in Megalochori, but Gavalas, Antoniou and, particularly, Boutaris are all excellent, and should be sought out at the first opportunity.
Fira and Oia are the most expensive (and trendiest) places to eat out on Santorini, with precious few places to suit the traveler on a budget. There are more relaxed, budget options, on the other hand, down in Kamari Beach and Perissa, where a selection of cheap fast-food can be snapped up.
