Visit the black sand beaches

Many people are familiar with the term "Black Sand Beach" in reference to one specific beach on the Greek island of Santorini. The most well-known beaches of Santorini are found on its southeast coast, about 24 minutes from the town of Fira. In reality, the island has many beaches that have been produced by the solidified lava giving them their dark tint. Those are the Perissa and Perivolos beaches, two sizable stretches of sand that run parallel to one another to form a lengthy beachfront. With its black sand and pebbles, which contrast with the pure waters' blue hue, they provide guests with an idyllic setting and a wonderful site to spend their vacations.

Another famous black beach in Santorini is Kamari beach. Separated from Perissa beach by Mesa Vouno Mountain and a 16-minute drive from Fira, Kamari beach is considered a beautiful place to relax with your family or friends.

The black sand beaches of Perivolos and Perissa are beautiful. They are lined with small shops, cafes, beach bars, and restaurants, so if you want to spend a day at the beach and have lots of amenities, this is a great place to go. These famous black beaches are fully organized with beach umbrellas and wide comfortable sunbeds alongshore, and many beach bars and restaurants. For water sports lovers, there is a wide selection of adventure activities, from jet skiing to parasailing, which ensures moments of fun and excitement that will definitely be memorable.
