Updated October 2026
The best places to meet singles in Santorini are PK Cocktail Bar, Tropical Bar, and 2 Brothers Bar. Go on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday evening, when they are at their liveliest and it is easiest to start a conversation.
Santorini is busiest from May to October, when Fira's bars, boat trips and beaches are full of travellers from everywhere. From November to April many hotels, beach bars and boat trips close, but Fira keeps some life all year for the roughly 15,500 people who live on the island.
These ten places are real and were checked in October 2026, from the caldera edge in Fira to Oia, Akrotiri, Karterados and Perissa. We note which ones are seasonal, and group activities like sailing, kayaking and wine tours are the easiest way to meet people here.
