Perissa Beach

  Perissa Beach stretches along the southeastern coast of Santorini (Thira), starting from Perissa village and continuing for nearly 7 kilometers. Known for its black volcanic sand, this beach is a testament to the island's volcanic origins, which date back thousands of years. Visitors flock to Perissa Beach for its wide expanse, providing ample space for sunbathing and a range of water sports, including windsurfing and jet skiing. Open year-round, the peak tourist season occurs from June to September, when the beach buzzes with activity. Beyond the shore, guests can explore local tavernas, enjoy beach bars, and admire the distant view of the iconic Mesa Vouno mountain.
