Car Hire in Perissa Santorini

Perissa beach, is one of the first beaches of Santorini that became so popular. The very first visitors of the island, back in the 70s, were astonished by the deep black colour of the sand ( a gift of the hugh volcanic eruption ), and the clear blue sea. Their favorite spot was near the foot of the mountain that separates Perissa and Kamari. Back then, things were a lot different. There were hardly any hotels, and only a couple of places where you could get food and some local wine. The word was spread, and very soon, when anyone mentioned a black beach in Santorini, that was usually Perissa. As years went by, this place changed into a beach with any facility a traveller today needs. At the moment, there are hotels, villas, and airbnb’s for every taste. From luxury brands, to economy pensions, and from private villas with swimming pools, to small traditional renovated houses. Despite the progress that comes with tourism, this area has kept a lot of its original charm. The beach is quite long, and you can find a lot of good restaurants, some really authentic small tavernas, beach bars, and cafe’s. Diving centers and water sports can also be found in the area as well as many sunbeds and umbrellas. One might think that this is not the right place to just relax and enjoy the sun away from the noise, but the truth is that even today there are are big parts of the beach completely empty, for those who prefer more privacy. Many visitors book a hotel in this area, in order to stay near the beach and enjoy it every day. If you stay in this area, you probably love swimming and sunbathing, but you have to keep in mind, that Santorini many more to offer.
