Begin your honeymoon on the picturesque clifftops of Fira, the island's capital city. Stroll through the narrow alleys, lined with charming whitewashed houses and local shops. Take in the stunning views of the volcano and the Aegean Sea from the cliffside restaurants and cafes. End the day with a romantic sunset at the famous Oia Castle.
Step back in time at the ancient Minoan city of Akrotiri, also known as the "Pompeii of the Aegean". This archaeological site showcases an advanced civilization that was destroyed by a volcanic eruption. Continue your day at the striking red sand beach nearby. Relax in the crystal-clear waters and marvel at the contrasting hues of the surrounding cliffs.
Experience the unique tastes of Santorini's volcanic soil and grape varieties at one of the island's local wineries. Taste the award-winning wines amidst the stunning vineyards at the Santo Wines Winery or Venetsanos Winery. Finish the day by exploring the iconic blue-domed churches and boutique shops of Oia, another spectacular sunset spot.
If you have more time, consider a boat tour to explore the island's hidden gems, including the hot springs, volcanic islets, and other beaches. For a more adventurous activity, try hiking along the caldera trail. If you have less time, skip the winery and Red Beach and spend the day exploring the museums and galleries of Fira. Don't forget to bring comfortable shoes and sunblock, as the temperature can rise significantly during the daytime.
