How safe is Santorini?

Santorini is generally a very safe place. The locals are friendly and mind their own business. The only case you would feel harassed is by drunk tourists trying to flirt with you. Keeping that in mind, make sure you always have your drink and your friends close, and be aware of malicious males.

Is Santorini worth visiting?

Travel rating

4.3 /5

based on 23 experiences from female travelers

Solo travel

Felt safe enough with Greek people and tourists. I’ve enjoyed the volkan cinema, where you can eat while watching mamma mia on the terrace of their restaurant. The food is not very typical but you should try feta cheese and pita gyros. Santorini in general is very expensive but you still can manage your money without spending too much in touristic stuff. In addition I recommend you to use the bus line and not the taxi or renting a car cause it’s very expensive if you’re alone.
