Oia and its sunset
must-seeFreeWhitewashed houses stepping down the cliff, blue domes above the caldera.
Everyone crams onto Oia castle. The path down to Ammoudi, fifty metres below, gets the same sun without the crush — and a fish dinner at the harbour.
public village, free access
View detailsFira to Oia trail
must-seeFreeTen kilometres of ridge above the caldera, linking the two villages.
Three hours on foot, and the finest thing on the island — for nothing. Start early: there is no shade.
public trail, free access
View detailsAkrotiri archaeological site
must-seePrice unconfirmedA Minoan town buried by the eruption, its streets and multi-storey houses intact.
It is the Pompeii of the Aegean and almost nobody goes. The only site on the island that stays cool at midday.
paid entry, rate to confirm; roofed, so it works in the heat
View detailsRed Beach
FreeDark red sand and cliffs at the foot of old volcanic flows.
Arrive by sea: the shuttle boats from Akrotiri land straight on the sand for a few euros and skip the path under the unstable cliff. Bring sandals — the gravel burns and cuts.
public beach, free access; loungers for hire
View detailsThe caldera by boat
Price unconfirmedNea Kameni volcano, the hot springs and Thirassia, seen from the water.
Take the late-afternoon sailing: it ends facing the sunset from the water — the same picture as Oia, without the village crowd or a terrace to book. Put your old swimsuit on before leaving, there is nowhere to change on board.
paid trip from Athinios or Ammoudi harbour; rates vary by operator
