The area is prone to landslides, and since 2013 parts of the beach have been inaccessible due to said slides.
Perissa Black Sand Beach
The longest beach of he island, is the ideal spot for some relaxation by the crystal clear water of the Aegean sea.

Elias…Best tour guide!

5.00Our Santorini Private Highlights Tour & Wine Tasting was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, our local guide made the experience unforgettable — friendly, knowledgeable, and full of great stories about the island’s history and culture. We got to see all the best spots — from the breathtaking caldera views in Oia to the charming alleys of Pyrgos and the stunning black sand beach. The highlight, of course, was the wine tasting at a beautiful local winery. The views were amazing, and the wines were even better — crisp, refreshing, and perfectly paired with local snacks. It felt exclusive and relaxed, not rushed at all. If you’re visiting Santorini, this private tour is a must-do! Perfect mix of sightseeing, local flavor, and relaxation. We couldn’t have asked for a better day. Highly recommend! 🍷🌅

5.00We skipped Oia as we are staying there. This allowed us more time to travel the other parts of the island. Theo was wonderful!! Not only did he take us to see amazing views from the light house and the castle in Pyrgos, but he took great photos of us! We even got a visit a small cave church. The winery was a very nice, quiet tasting and tour of the winery (not overcrowded tourist spot). Very highly recommend!!!
Elias made Santorini exceptional!

5.00The island of Santorini is beautiful but if you don't know your way around, are you really miss it's true beauty. Elias promptly picked us up in a luxury car with amazing air conditioning. He greeted us with a friendly smile and asked us to call him a friend, not a tour guide. He's lived on the island for 8 years and knows every back road, viewpoint, shop and restaurant. He expertly toward us through multiple locations on the island which is actually quite small. We have viewpoints of our ship from at least five different vantage points and some of the most breathtaking views of our entire vacation in the Greek Islands. He went as fast and slow as we wanted to go offering to take us anywhere or to meet anyone that he knew. He even found out we wanted a high-end lunch and took us to a luxury Beach resort where they brought a fish directly to the table for a selection before they cooked it. At the end of our tour we visited the winery and had an exceptional time bantering with the locals. The wine tour is included, food is on your own, however just let your tour guide know what your budget is and they will set something up for you. If you're curious about shopping, the famous Blue domes of Santorini, or just want to lay out on a black sand or red sand beach, Elias is your guy! I can't imagine having a better possible tour and he will always be the person we request when we go to visit this beautiful island. I highly recommend a private tour, you absolutely get more than your money's worth and with a short time in Port, every moment counted. Thank you thank you thank you!!
