Fira, and Oia are the two main towns of Santorini and they are very well connected for taking a hiking trail. Depending on the speed and stops that a hiker takes on the way for clicking pictures, the trail can take anywhere between two to five hours but the view along the way can be absolutely heart-stopping. 

 

Starting from Fira, the route may not be completely marked but it can be fairly easy to find out the directions. While finishing the trail into Oia, there will be a sharp descent from the hills and that part of the trail can be simply awesome for any hiker. It is always recommendable to start the hike early in the morning so that the best views can be expected at the time. 

2. A tour to the Santorini winery

The cliffs of Oia are highly frequented by people who want to watch the picturesque sunset of Santorini. Mostly visitors frequent here with a bottle of wine and laze around the place to get a stunning view of the sunset. What’s more, there are buses to Imerovigli or Fira that ply after the sunset is over so that reaching one’s destination is never an issue. The restaurant, Elinikon is renowned for its sunset views so that if the event has to be enjoyed with some snacks, it can also be visited.

7. The Lighthouse of Santorini

It is situated on the southern tip of the island and the view from the Lighthouse is very different from what can be enjoyed in Fira or Oia. Looking north towards the caldera, the arc formation of the island can be seen from here pretty well and it makes for an outstanding sight.  

 

These are some of the must do things in Santorini apart from the fact that a visit to the Red Beach, Prehistoric Thera Museum and Art Space Winery can also be undertaken for a breathtaking experience.
