What should I pack for a holiday in Santorini in November?
For a holiday in Santorini make sure you have comfortable shoes as there are a lot of slopes and stairs to navigate. You'll want plenty of light layers for a November trip, but you can skip too much beach/ swim wear as it's going to be a chilly dip if you do go swimming.

What's great about Santorini in November?
The great thing about Santorini in November is there are far less crowds than during the summer months. Santorini is a popular spot for cruise ships and during the summer there can be 6+ ships there every single day. But during November there will be some days without a single ship. But the weather is still lovely
