What to do and see in Santorini, South Aegean: The Best Things to do Good for Kids

January 2, 2022 Lean Nau

Even if you’ve never been to this Cyclades island in the Aegean Sea, you’d still recognize it immediately – candy-colored houses carved into cliffs, sapphire waters, gleaming white buildings topped with half-spheres the color of a stormy sky. Here you’ll find peace as you roam the black sand beaches or the streets of a provincial village like Imerovigli. Beautiful Oia is world famous for its sunsets, which seem tinted with every shade of an artist’s palette.

Monastery of Profitis Ilias

Reviewed By LLV280Z - Daytona Beach, United States

We were so glad we made it to this monastery. The roads were crazy, with hairpin twists and turns and we wondered if it had been a good decision. There was plenty of parking when we arrived; it wasn't too crowded and it was just lovely. The beauty and peacefulness wrapped itself around you and you just gave a deep sigh being there! The chapel was very small but beautiful! We wandered around taking in the tranquility and the aesthetics. It was one of our favorite places on Santorini!

The Castle of St Nicholas

Reviewed By R6874UWjoshuap - Wilmette, United States

This place is absolutely amazing! This is the spot from where people take pictures of the famous Oia windmills, although many people know this and take advantage of this making it a very popular destination for tourists during sunset. Best time to go here would be after dark. You'll have the place to yourself and get the gift of seeing the beauty of Santorini being bathed in ambient light!

Sunset in Oia

Reviewed By iaink2001 - Southend-on-Sea, United Kingdom

I'm so glad I managed to get to travel to Santorini and take in it's beautiful sights. If you get a chance it's an island you must visit at least once in your lifetime, amazing white washed villages against the blue and volcanic backdrop is a site to behold. Although the sunset wasn't as good as normal when I went to Oia, as there were clouds on the horizon which covered the sun in it's final moments before dipping into the Aegean. Even in these times there's still a large crowd that gathers on every spare vantage point, so give yourself a bit of time before sunset and get ready with your camera, you won't regret it.
