The beaches on Santorini are beautiful and varied, with white, red, and black sand depending on location. However, swimming must be done with some care as the water gets deep very quickly and rip currents are not uncommon. Flip-flops are a must as the sand can get very hot in the sun. SCUBA diving is also available with trips to wrecks, the volcano, and the underwater caldera face (or so we are told; none of us dives).
