8 Most Picturesque Greek Islands

Santorini is undoubtedly one of the most iconic and picturesque Greek islands. Famous for its whitewashed buildings, blue-domed churches, and spectacular sunsets, it offers postcard-perfect views at every turn. The caldera, formed by a massive volcanic eruption, creates a dramatic setting that enhances the island’s beauty.

Visitors can explore the charming towns of Oia and Fira, take in breathtaking views from the cliffs, or visit the archaeological site of Akrotiri, an ancient Minoan city preserved in volcanic ash. Santorini’s unique black and red sand beaches, such as Kamari and Red Beach, add to its distinctive allure.
