This Cyclades island in the Aegean Sea looks like something out of a fairy tale, with caramel-colored houses carved into cliffs, sapphire waters, and chalk-white buildings topped with cobalt-blue domes. Stroll along the quiet black sand beaches or stroll through the streets of one of Santorini’s charming towns (start in Imerovigli).

And no matter where the day takes you, relax in beautiful Oia: It’s world famous for its sunsets, which cycle through a kaleidoscope of colors in its spectacular nighttime spectacle.
