Santorini is a perfect place to extend your summer feeling and enjoy some beach days before autumn arrives. Early September is the best time to travel: beautiful, almost empty beaches, fun but not too crowded nightlife and lots of nice restaurants without tourists all over. My suggestion for a relaxed day is to rent a car, drive to Perivolos Beach, enjoy the day at WET Stories drink some iced coffee before having lunch at Nets Fish Tavern next to the beach. Santorini offers many good restaurants like Metaximas in Exo Gonia where I had amazing lamb with mint and yoghurt sauce or the grilled sardines at Nichteri in Kamari. Kamari is a nice spot for a day trip and offers among lots of small shops and bars the most beautiful Openair Cinema. The Feggera Restaurant serves exquisite traditional food on a terrace with a nice view over Megalochori, here the keftedes are a must! Then there is il Cantuccio, a small italian Ristorante in Firostefani with delicious spaghetti frutti di mare. After dinner a short walk with a stunning view over the Caldera leads you  to Thira. Thira is the main village and offers everything a touristy place does: shops, bars, clubs and lots of souvenirs. After dinner a drink or sangria at Kira Thira Jazz is perfect to start nightlife. Next day same again…
