We had a nice trip down to Santorini on a proper ferry, we could sit out on the deck in the sun and watch the sailing boats and islands drift by. It definately felt like a good way to travel and we got the benefits of it as we arrived into Santorini. THe cliffs that towered above us were really amazing and when we eventually found somewhere to stay we were rally pleased.
THe Cori Rigas apartments had a view right out over the "crater" which is now filled with water. We had our own terrace looking out over it and spent loads of time just looking out at the wonderful views. The cruise ships would moor in the bay below and you could actually while away quite a bit of time just watching all the wee pilot boats shuttling back and forth. The breakfasts at the place were awesome. The owner seemed to want to fatten us both up and there was no way we could eat everything he offered us.
We also hired a motorbike and went round loads of the island. Managed to find a wee stretch of beach all to ourselves which was just minutes walk from Red Beach where the people were crammed in like sardines..
We'd definately come back to Santorini.
