Santorini Itinerary Fira Oia Beaches Perissa - Black Beach (close to Fira) Akritori - Red Beach Ammoudi Beach (down the donkey Path from Oia) Boutari Winery Sunset Cruise  Fira (Nea Kami, Hot Springs, Thirasia) and Sunset at Oia Boutari Winery http://www.boutari-santorini.gr/location.htm The place looks like a warehouse from the outside, but surprisingly was quite nice. If you like wines, you can check out Boutari Winery and go for tasting.  It's only 1 Euro per (tasting) wine glass and then you'll get to try all the stuff especially the ones that are from Santorni.  Looks like a warehouse 1 Euro for Wine Tasting!  The Boutari shop - you can get your wine after doing your tasting :) Koulara - Koulara Rose - I did *not* like this Koulara Reserve - nice white wine dry Santorini - White Dry (fermented in a tank) Abellastos - Red Sweet Wine  Tasted like Port (Raisin wine) and it was actually good)

Santorini Itinerary Fira Oia The spot that we took our post card  pictures Beaches Perissa - Black Beach (close to Fira) Akritori - Red Beach Ammoudi Beach (down the donkey Path from Oia) Boutari Winery Sunset Cruise  Fira (Nea Kami, Hot Springs, Thirasia) and Sunset at Oia Oia "Oia is carved out of the cliffs, and visitors can see houses built for Venetian sea captains as well as the more typical "cave houses" of the villagers. You’ll find the pure white buildings with colourful roofs that are typical of Greek architecture, and you’ll probably enjoy poking around the town. But don’t breeze through in an hour—you must stay for the sunset. It’s legendary. Watch from a café, or, better yet, from a boat—you’ll be spellbound." ( Trip Advisor ) Oia is really beautiful and you can find the best sunset in Santorini.  The ruined castle is the best place to check out the Sunset.  Unfortunately, the place looks very "artificial" t
