(1) Watch the sunset and enjoy the scenery by bus to the OIA at the west end of the island, which is built on the volcanic cliffs near the sea. It can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Santorini's most famous "Sunset Aegean Sea" or PIRGOS, the highest part of the island, which has a panoramic view of the island and the active volcanic island PALIA KAMENI across the sea. It can also take a bus from Ferra to Black Beach, which is a unique fire. Mountainous geology, volcanic rocks, ash deposits mixed with white sand, the sand looks black; there is a red beach, located in a small enclosed bay, can only be reached by boat; also in the capital Ferra (FIRA) - "We tried the cable car (down) and donkey (up) way to the old pier. (2) Tour boats around the island need to buy tickets to the local travel agency one day in advance. Travel agencies have their own buses to pick up passengers from all parts of the island and take them by boat. The location of the boat may be at Athinio pier or old pier. Tourists living in Ferra need to go to the old pier by themselves. There are three ways to get to the old wharf. One is to go down by cable car. The location of the cable car is in the north of Ferra Town. There are signs on the map beside the Chinese Hotel. The second is to ride down the donkey. The way to ride the donkey is easy to find. You can see it on the edge of Ferra's cliff. It's not wrong to walk towards the strong taste of donkey. The last way, of course, is to walk on your own, but it can be very tiring, and always pay attention to the donkeys passing by and the excrement under your feet. (3) Bar entertainment Ferra Town night is also very crazy, many of the town's bars night is crowded. Generally, entry tickets are 10-15 euros, which can be exchanged for a glass of wine in the bar. (4) Walk and photograph as you like on a fairy-tale island like Santorini. Everywhere is a beautiful scenery. Sometimes wandering around the island aimlessly, taking pictures, is also a very enjoyable thing. 1. Safety issues - "There are no traffic lights or cameras on the whole island, Greeks drive very fast (they believe their goddess Athena will bless them), so there are still many traffic accidents. If the car is not good, we should choose public transport instead of renting a car. 2. The bus schedule on the island is announced at Ferra Station. You can take a picture and arrange the time. If four people travel, in some places, taxi is cheaper than bus ride (usually starting at 5 Euros). You must negotiate the price with the driver in advance. 3. When we went to the island in November, there was a big temperature difference. During the day, short sleeves were mainly used. The sun was hot and hot, so we could do some sunscreen measures. At night, it was cold, and some of our teammates even wore down clothes. 4. Spring and autumn are the best time to travel to Greece, especially in May, June, September and October. Many hotels and restaurants on the island are closed in winter, because foreigners are more open-minded and enjoyable, they will basically go to a hotter place for holidays. Looking at it, I still think that we Chinese are hardworking, brave and labor-loving. From the end of October to the middle of April, many hotels, seasonal cafes and restaurants will be closed, and buses and ferries will be greatly reduced or cancelled. We went to Holy Island in early November, without affecting basic activities. 5. The lack of water resources is a serious problem in most parts of Greece, and Santorini is no exception. The tap water in the room should not be drinkable directly unless it is boiled or purified. Even after the bathing water is finished, it feels rusty all over. So drinking water is recommended to go to the supermarket to buy pure water. 6. I feel that the off-season is better than the peak season. Although the off-season is inconvenient, the peak season is watching people. 7. According to the method of time zoning, China uses Beijing time in the East Eighth District, while Italy is in the East First District. Local time in winter time is 7 hours slower than that in Beijing, while summer time is 6 hours slower than that in Beijing due to the local time being allocated 1 hour faster. 8. Stores are open on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 1.30 p.m., from 5.30 p.m. to 8.30 p.m., Monday, Wednesday and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2.30 p.m. There are 13 villages on Santorini Island. On one side of the island, there are four towns close to the crater - "Syrah, Imerovigli, Firastefani and Oia. To the west of the island, all the houses built on the cliffs were painted white, and as the sunset set set, the white houses had slowly turned into gold.
