Top Santorini Instagram Spots and How to Find Them

Santorini is one of the world’s most photogenic destinations, and its landscapes are just as stunning in real life as they are on your feed. If you’re looking for the most iconic Santorini Instagram spots, a guided photo tour is the perfect way to capture the island’s beauty without the stress of navigating crowds or missing golden hour.

The Top Santorini Instagram Spots in Oia, Imerovigli & Pyrgos

Some villages of Santorini are simply made for the lens:

• Oia: The quintessential postcard view—whitewashed houses, blue domes, windmills, and jaw-dropping sunsets.
• Imerovigli: Elevated and elegant, it offers sweeping caldera views and peaceful, scenic corners.
• Pyrgos: Often overlooked, this charming hilltop village offers winding paths, rooftop views, and timeless Cycladic details with much less crowds.

These locations are not only among the best views in Santorini, but also offer the colour, contrast, detailing and character that Instagram loves.

Lesser-Known Santorini Instagram Spots You’ll Love

While the villages are iconic, some of the most unique shots come from places most visitors miss: quiet alleyways, pastel courtyards, old stone chapels, and bougainvillea-covered arches. NST’s local guides know exactly where and when to go for the best light and the fewest people, so your photos feel like hidden treasures, not tourist snapshots.

Where to Find the Best Views in Santorini

From direct sunset views in Oia, to cliffside lookouts in Imerovigli and the sweeping hilltop panoramas of Pyrgos, Santorini delivers panoramic views at every turn. The key is knowing where to stand—and when. That’s why NST’s photography tours are built around the best views in Santorini and perfectly timed light, helping you frame your shot like a pro.
