So you're visiting Santorini for a few days, have you planned your trip already of which places to go to first? Don't worry, we wrote a list of the three best places you can visit in Santorini for a breath of fresh air! So in no particular order, here they are!
Oia's Main Street
From white-painted
Oia Santorini hotels to blue-domed churches and structures, this wonderful sight is brought to you by the village of Oia! Be ready to get awed by the magical and awesome setup the locals have in Oia. The main street is made up of traditional tavernas, restaurants, and shops for goods. There are many tourists going up from the docking station. If you want to avoid the crowd, you can opt for a cable car ride where you can see the village and most of the island from above. Or you can pay for a donkey ride!

Yet, the best way to explore the main street is by walking. You'll get more of the picturesque town by slowly gazing at its inspiring architecture, natural beauty, and accommodating locals. The main street of Oia gives us an idea on how to chill and take the time to appreciate the little things.
Akrotiri Lighthouse
The south tip of the island unveils the romantic and sunset-viewing spot just as beautiful as Oia, the Lighthouse in Akrotiri. Akrotiri is a one bus ride away from Fira and Oia. Also, it is where you will find the ancient archaeological site which is also a must-visit. But we are here for a different purpose. We are here to witness the best feature of the day- sunset! It is romantic because it is a peaceful remote part of the island where you can share the golden hour with the one you love.

Hey, you have to be careful on hiking down to the Lighthouse as this is made of steep cliffs. Nevertheless, you will have the best time here!
The Cultural Village
Everyone who visits the island of Santorini eventually becomes captivated with the culture. Let the yourself get lost in the Cultural Village in Pyrgos which the locals call the Old Santorini Town. Here, not only you will notice the beautiful home setting in a traditional town. But also, there's a museum complex where the visitors can take a historical and gastronomic tour of the island!

The museum houses antiques, old photographs, model figures of locals that generally describe the Old Santorini. This museum complex was established to show the new generations the gift of the past. You will have a good time at the Cultural Village as they serve lunch and dinner to guests. Also, you can taste a set of traditional wines they offer. This place is a must-see for all history buffs and individuals alike!
Your vacation isn't and wouldn't be complete if you will not have a good time in a posh accommodation. The
Delfini Hotel in Santorini offers you not only a place to stay at but a magical home away from home where you can rejuvenate and just forget whatever work, problem, or stress you have back home!

The Delfini Hotel is located in Oia. The hotel complex is perfectly carved by the cliff! You have unlimited time to view the Caldera from the veranda of your room or suite! Also, when in Delfini Hotel, you will be greeted by the friendly staffs. So don't be afraid to approach them or ask them about the island. They will surely love to help!
