Santorini is one of the most beautiful places to visit. To be perfectly honest, you can’t really go wrong with any of the Greek Islands, however, Santorini is a place made for the romantics and is a wonderful honeymoon destination or couple’s getaway.
The crisp white buildings and blue domes on the hills with panoramic views of the ocean are a photographer’s dream…so you can imagine that I wanted outfits to match the scenery!
While most of the days on Santorini can be spent wandering around the area of Oia — popping into restaurants and exploring nooks and crannies — you should also mix in a bit of adventure with a self-guided ATV ride while you’re there!
When Meyer and I went to Santorini it was in July and incredibly warm, so a good portion of our time was spent relaxing by the pool. The summer is quite crowded as that is peak season, but if you’re prepared for that and book things ahead of time, you should be perfectly fine.
Obviously, the weather will be a factor in putting together your Santorini outfits, but if you’re visiting from late spring to early fall, you should be fine with mainly “beachy” attire. Think sundresses, several bikinis, shorts, and cute tops, along with hats and sandals.
Here’s my guide about creating the perfect outfits for Santorini!
Sundresses + Mix and Match Outfits
Stuck on what to wear in Santorini? Sundresses are a staple for me when traveling around Greece! From short flouncy ones to long ones, I love how effortless dresses for Santorini are. You can pair them with sandals, or, if you’re going out for dinner you could dress them up a bit with some accessories.
Bringing along a few pieces that you can mix and match or dress up—especially for romantic dinners—is super helpful!

Shorts + Tops
A number of days involved us hanging out by the pool or adventuring around the island. Casual shorts and tops that you can throw on while still looking cute make for super easy outfits for Greece.
Bikinis + Swimwear
As some of the days are spent pretty much at the pool—be sure to pack a few swimsuits! While the floral suits I’m wearing above have since sold out, I found a few similar ones below:
Hats + Sandals
While hats aren’t the easiest thing to travel with, I always make a point to bring them as they can really change up an outfit and are great for blocking out the harsh Mediterranean rays! Sandals are perfect for most Santorini outfits; you can easily slip them on to wander around town, whether for shopping or dining.
I hope these Santorini outfit ideas help you with packing for your upcoming trip.
Let me know what your Greece travel plans are – I’d love to hear them!
Hi! We are planning to basically leave our hotel in the morning and explore the island throughout the day, which I’m sure will include beach stops. Did you wear a swimsuit under dresses/shorts for days out and about? Or do most beaches have changing areas?
Thank you!
Check out my ATV guide for Santorini! It can be VERY hot so I just wore my swimsuit with some shorts and we drove ourselves on an ATV. If you have a car I could imagine you’d be able to just change in the car if needed.
Traveling to Greece for the first time in early September.
