Travel Tips
Here are some travel tips for your trip from Heraklion (Crete) to Santorini: - The port of Heraklion can get crowded during the summer so we recommend that you arrive at the port at least 1 hr in advance. If you are traveling with a vehicle, it's best to be there 1.5-2 hr ahead of your ferry's departure. - The sea can get a bit choppy, so if you are sensitive to the waves, consider taking seasickness medication for the trip. As always, you can discuss your options with your pharmacist or doctor. - If you are planning to stay in Santorini for longer, we recommend that you book accommodation as early as possible (about 3-4 months in advance). - You can also get to Santorini from the ports of Rethymnon and Sitia. Check out the Crete - Santorini ferry route for more info. - For your return tri
