Kamari Santorini: Kamari is a famous beach resort of Santorini situated 10 km southeast of Fira, the island's capital. Quite similar to the landscape of Perissa, the beach is covered by black sand while on the left side of the beach is an enormous rock called Mesa Vouno that rises from the sea. The area is extremely attractive, especially at night when the rock shines in the dark.
Bets wine, best fresh fish all over the beach.
#BVSBlue Santorini's volcanic history has led to the formation of some of the more unique beaches in the Greek Isles, and Kamari is no exception. Sitting about 4 miles southeast of Fira on the island's east coast, this stretch of black sand is one of the largest in Santorini. The beach is backed by the town of its namesake, a popular resort area where you'll find numerous hotels, restaurants, beachside bars and shops. On the beach, visitors can take advantage of the available lounge chairs and umbrellas. Travelers enjoyed the clear blue waters of Kamari and suggested planting your feet towards the southern portion of the shore. That's because the views of the imposing Mesa Vouno hill, where you can find Ancient Thira, makes for a picture-perfect Greek beach setting. No matter where you decide to kick back on Kamari Beach, travelers strongly suggest bringing protective footwear. The sand and pebbly terrain can get quite hot with the sun beating down on it, especially after a couple hours, so bring sandals if you're hoping to spend the day on the beach. Some visitors even suggested bringing water shoes, commenting that the underwater terrain at the shore quickly goes from sand to slippery solid rock.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (266 reviews)
The rooms are nice but they have a tiny tv. The hotel is situated at top of a hill and to get down to local bus stop or market you have to be ware cause super damgerous. On expedia it says its 5 mn drive to Old town which is not the case. It takes minimum of 15 mn drive and over 49 with bus due to its many stops. At the bottom of the hill , you have Ornos beach which is very pretty with several reastaurants. Overall i thought it was overpriced for its location and what it offered. Their breakfast was decent.

Verified traveller

We travelled in October half term, and several places had shut or were shutting down, which reduced choice in restaurants and shops, but there were still enough open for us! Fira was still heaving, though, as was Oia.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Very stoney beach so painful walking on the beach and getting in and out of the sea. Can recommend taking beach shoes... Sea was crystal clear and very clean. Good choice of beach restaurants and sun loungers and umbrellas are free as long as you also eat or buy drinks from the restaurant they belong too.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveller

Very busy beach, we chose to go to perissa beach which was a little quieter and sheltered from the winds.

4/5 - Good

Rocks in sea can be slippery. Buy anti slip water shoes and its fine. Available in shops by the beach around 8 euros

3/5 - Okay

Lovely place to visit but close proximity to airport may not be ideal for a good nights sleep.
