Practical Santorini guide
Shopping in Santorini
Santorini shopping ranges from local food and wine to jewellery, art, clothing and souvenirs, with the largest concentration in Fira and Oia.
What to buy
Look for Santorini wine, fava products, tomato-based products and work from local artists or craftspeople rather than generic imported souvenirs.
Where to shop
Fira offers the broadest selection. Oia has many boutiques and galleries, while villages can be better for food products and smaller local businesses.
Practicalities
Ask about airline baggage restrictions before buying liquids, and request appropriate packaging for bottles.
Tax and receipts
Keep receipts for significant purchases and confirm any tax-refund eligibility and process with the retailer before leaving Greece.
