5Kamari – Best for Beach Lovers

Kamari lies on the island’s east coast and is known for its long black-sand beach, beachfront promenade, and relaxed holiday atmosphere. This area is ideal for travelers who prefer staying near the sea rather than the caldera cliffs. 

Hotels in Kamari are generally more affordable, and the area offers excellent dining options, water sports, and easy access from the airport. Kamari suits families, casual travelers, and those planning a beach-focused Santorini stay while still being within reach of the island’s main attractions.
