Red Beach in Akrotiri, Santorini, is one of the most famous and visually striking beaches on the island. Named for its unique red volcanic sand and towering red cliffs, the beach is a natural marvel. The red hue of the sand and rocks comes from the volcanic activity that formed the island. Located near the archaeological site of Akrotiri, an ancient Minoan city, Red Beach offers visitors a blend of natural beauty and historical significance. While the beach is small, its dramatic scenery makes it a popular destination for those looking to enjoy the sun and swim in the crystal-clear waters. Access to the beach involves a short walk down a steep path, and although there are limited amenities, its stunning views make it a must-see spot on Santorini.
White Beach in Santorini is a secluded and picturesque beach located near the village of Akrotiri, on the island’s southern coast.

The calm waters are perfect for swimming and snorkeling, allowing visitors to enjoy the stunning underwater views.

The Santorini Volcano is an active volcanic system located in the center of the island’s famous caldera. It consists of several volcanic islands, primarily Nea Kameni and Palea Kameni, which were formed by eruptions over thousands of years. The most significant eruption occurred around 1600 BC, drastically shaping the island's landscape and creating the dramatic caldera that Santorini is known for today. The volcano is still active, with geothermal features such as hot springs and fumaroles. It plays a major role in the island's geology and is a popular site for tourists interested in nature and history, offering stunning views of the caldera and the surrounding Aegean Sea.
