1. Tranquilo Beach Bar
As a bonus, there are many vegetarian choices. Traquilo hosts bands and live shows every now and then. Do not miss their Latin parties if you fancy dancing some salsa. This is the type of bar that you can spend a whole day at. And the day after, to be honest, as this is one of the best Santorini beach clubs. It is just so.. tranquilo ????
2. JOJO Beach Bar
If you are after a good party in the afternoon, this is just the right place for you. Keep in mind, the parties usually end at around 23.00-24.00. If you prefer a quiet place by the beach, you can also go to JOJO and get yourself into a lovely cabana on the beach. Cabana, cocktail in hand, the sea right in front of you…Enjoy your day!
3. Wet Stories Beach Bar
Gets louder in the afternoon, especially when there is a guest DJ or a live show. The cocktails will not disappoint you. As a bonus, I quite like that every umbrella has an electric charging point for mobile phones and a small safe to put your things inside when you go for a swim. Wet Storeis is one of the best Santorini beach clubs.
4. Chilli Beach Bar
Chilli is right next to Wave Sports, so you could go for a drink after your jet ski ride. You will discover a very interesting cocktail list. It will surely intrigue you. Try their own “Hot Chili” cocktail. Refreshing and spicy. Love it!
5. Waves Beach Bar
Waves does not have crazy parties with DJs, but it is open for drinks till the early morning hours! The staff is very friendly and the cocktails are really good. You should expect to find the usual food menu with casual plates such as club sandwiches or fresh salads.
6. SeaSide by Notos Beach Bar
Also super romantic in the evening, which makes it an ideal place for a date away from all the crowds. You can call in advance to book your sunbed/ table. You can also arrange for a private dinner right on the beach, just for the two of you.
7. Forty One
8. Theros Wave Beach Bar
Theros Wave Bar is tucked away into the white volcanic cliffs of Vlychada Beach (a.k.a. white beach) and cut off from civilization. It really offers a small taste of paradise on earth – here in Santorini, and it is worth discovering. Theros Wave Bar is just so exotic. This is one of my favourite Santorini beach clubs, to be honest, and I visit it every year. And relaxing.
You know you are on holiday when you get to this place… I think Theros Wave Bar was specifically designed for couples and super romantic occasions. You can eat and drink there. You can even get married there! Try their “Honey Spirit” Cocktail. Got to love that…!
9. Yalos
Yalos is not on one of the most famous beaches in Santorini (Perissa, Perivolas, or Kamari), and it’s pretty close to Monolithos and the airport. It is on a very quiet beach, but it attracts quite a lot of people (even celebrities visit it) in July and August.
Yalos is in a very beautiful and romantic setting, so don’t expect any crazy parties on it. It just has a very relaxing and chilled-out atmosphere, and that’s not a bad thing…
10. East Breeze
11. Katharos Lounge
Katharos Lounge is one of the best well kept secrets of Santorini. It is not only a lounge bar but an amazing vegan meze (tapas) place. It is located just above Katharos beach (just behind Oia), and it really has a fascinating story as it was a hospital treating patients who had leprosy.
A few FAQs:
Does Santorini have beach clubs?
Does Santorini have a nightlife?
Santorini has very good nightlife, even though it is marketed more towards couples and honeymooners. You can read my ultimate guide on Santorini nightlife. It is true, though, that Mykonos nightlife is much better, and if you are really for the best beach parties and the best clubs overall, then Mykonos island has a much larger variety of options and crazier parties than Santorini.
Where are the best beach clubs in Santorini?
The best beach clubs in Santorini are located on the black sand beaches of the east coast, specifically in Perissa, Perivolos, and Kamari. Because the famous caldera towns (like Oia and Fira) sit high on the cliffs, they do not have beach clubs.
How much does a beach club cost in Santorini?
Prices for beach clubs in Santorini vary widely. Expect to pay anywhere from 30 to 150 euros for a set of two sunbeds and an umbrella, depending on the club’s exclusivity and the row you choose (front row by the water is always more expensive). Many clubs also require a minimum spend on food and drinks.
Do I need to book beach clubs in Santorini in advance?
Yes, if you are visiting between June and September, you should absolutely book your beach club sunbeds in advance. The most popular spots in Perissa and Perivolos sell out weeks ahead of time during the peak summer season.
What are the best beach clubs in Perissa?
Perissa and the adjoining Perivolos beach are home to Santorini’s most famous beach clubs. Some of the best and most popular venues include Seaside Santorini, Jojo Beach Bar, and Wet Stories, which offer luxury sunbeds, DJ sets, and excellent food.
