Near Akrotiri village on Santorini island - Greece; Shutterstock ID 432307018
Sunset from the "other" side of the famous Santorini crater. This part of the island, near the great archaeological site of Akrotiri, offers a glimpse of the natural beauty of the island and is a nice contrast to the whitewashed towns the island is famous for. #lifeatexpedia
The popular Red Beach on Santorini, Greece. This beach has unique colours compared to the white and black beaches found everywhere else around the island.
The famous red beach we explored on our Cyclades hopping holidays this year. The sand is mainly black and Red from Santorini volcanic rocks... #LifeAtExpedia #beach
Quite a popular sight based on all the tourists but if you actually complete the walk down to the beach itself you'll be one of only a handful who are enjoying the red-ish sand and perfect water. The rest stay at the lookout, catch a glimpse and leave. #santorini #beautifulbeaches #greece

Great location
The favorite part of this stay was its location.. it was so nice to be able to walk to the little village for restaurants. Driving is a challenge on the narrow roads of the island, so walking was relaxing. The small house also fit in with the historic neighborhood. The host, Kate was very nice and ...
