If you are in the mood to live such a cosmopolitan and intense life as nowhere else in the world, the choices for entertainment in Santorini are plenty. After many decades of lively night life, Fira is still offering the classical way of entertainment in the island and has an array of choices for all tastes.

Cocktail-bars with view to Caldera are unique to begin your night in a more relaxed way. In Erythrou Staurou street, also called and bar street, you will find many bars and clubs in line to continue until next morning. If you are lucky, you may also find live music in some of them. Continue by following the crowd to the biggest and trendier clubs with mainstream music in the island, where as the time passes, Greek hits are dominating the club with people dancing in the tables and bars, giving to the tourists a first taste of what Greek entertainment means! If you prefer something less crowded, you should try the Caldera’s side. There you will find places with interesting decoration, breathtaking view, cosy couches and loud mainstream music. If you are Roc ‘n Roll fans, in Santorini you will find this too. The youngest visitors have the opportunity to enjoy even R ‘n B in places with nice atmosphere in combination to the always beautiful view of the Caldera. An alternative in the night life of Santorini are the entertainment centres with music from the eighties that travel visitors in past times. It is worth mentioning that in many of these centres, known Greek and foreign DJs are coming from time to time to play soul, funk and ethnic music. If your are a fan of the Greek way of entertainment and you wish to dance under the sound of the mpouzouki, you will find it in relevant places in Fira. In these places many locals are gathered and the fun is till morning. Of course, for those who have fun till morning, there are places for fast food in Fira’s square.

The night out side Fira is quite interesting but less loud. In Oia you will find enough bars with lounge music and view to the Caldera, places where you usually meet those who wish to relax from the city’s rhythms and want to rejuvenate.

 
As far as the entertainment during the day is concerned, the beach bars in Perivolos, Perissa and Kamari are leading the way. Loud music and drinks stimulate the people in the beaches and easily create a party atmosphere. Fun is on the top until the sunset. In Kamari and Perissa bars are crowded until night and have the same intense rhythms with those of the day. In beach bars you will find choices either to chill out next to the wave or to dance and throw a beach party until morning.
