Beautiful island with amazing places and views. I would suggest to go to spend great time site seeing or having excursions, not really to spend time on the beach.

The beach at Perissa was amazing - the sea was so clear and the restaurants/ bars we visited along the beach were great too. Red beach was lovely as well, but go early because it got really busy by midday. We enjoyed wondering around Pyrgos and watched the sunset whilst having dinner at Franco's cafe which was pretty spectacular.

Rent a car if more than 2, otherwise rent a buggy, take your time. Go to oia, thera, akrotiri, perissa and enjoy the views.

Great service from DiscoverCars
Choosing a car on the website was super easy, contract details & the informational regarding insurance very clear. Customer support was great and the refund claim related to a scratch on the car was processed quickly without any issues. Overall great service and I would definitely use DiscoverCars again.

The windshield of the car we rented cracked while driving and the damage quickly spread. The rental company charged us €960 for it. However, once we submitted the necessary documents, Discovery Cars promptly refunded the amount. I highly recommend getting insurance. Special thanks to Mario for his support throughout the process.
