Advice on galleries to visit in Fira?

[acamp7]

I heard that Santorini is a great place for artists and people who admire art. I will be in Santorini for a cruise stop soon, but I will only have time to explore Fira.

I'm planning a trip to the beautiful island of Santorini and, as an enthusiastic art lover, I'm eager to immerse myself in the local art scene. Fira, with its stunning caldera views and charming streets, is on my travel itinerary, and I would love to explore some art galleries while I'm there.

From what I've gathered, Santorini, and Fira in particular, is a hub for vibrant art, showcasing everything from contemporary pieces by local artists to ancient artifacts that narrate the island's rich history. However, with such a plethora of options, it's a bit overwhelming to choose where to start.

Anyone have any advice?

I just went to Santorini and I have been several times before. This time around, I was there on a cruise stop.

We were able to stay through sunset. If you will be there through sunset and you have time to get to Oia, do it! It's worth it - but you need to give yourself plenty of time - it gets so busy. Or you can research other places to view the sunset.

We wandered around in Fira and found a private tour company where we planned our tour and got our own guide. If you can find something like that, do it! It was fun telling them what we wanted to do. For me, a highlight was going to the Red Beach. I wish I had more time for that beach, it was fantastic.
