About Perivolos Beach
Perivolos forms part of Santorini’s long southeast volcanic shore, continuing between Perissa and Agios Georgios. Its surface is black volcanic sand mixed with fine pebbles, and the dark material can become hot under strong midday sun. This is one of the island’s most developed beach-day options: organised sections provide sunbeds, umbrellas, showers, toilets and lifeguard coverage, while beach bars, tavernas, food, music and water-sports operators line the coast. The beach is long enough to include both lively club zones and quieter stretches away from the busiest venues. A large parking area and road access are recorded, although summer demand can still fill spaces. Typical conditions are classified as calm, but check the day’s wind. Perivolos appears in the official 2026 Blue Flag list for Santorini.
