Santorini, one of the top tourism destinations in the world, has managed, within the last few years, to create its own strong Greek brand for sports tourism, “Santorini Experience” through the co-organization of the Municipality of Santorini, Municipal Sports Cultural Environmental Organization of Santorini (DAPPOS) and Active Media Group. The top and award-winning sports tourism event, which gathered more than 6,000 visitors from 45 countries last year, will take us to the island of Santorini, for the 5th consecutive year, on October 4-6, 2019 through running and swimming races.

 

All those traveling to the island by ferry for the 5th “Santorini Experience”, will be able to enjoy once again this year the safety and comfort of Blue Star Ferries. The top Greek shipping company offers 50% discount on the ferry tickets, from/to Santorini and 30% discount on vehicles to all those visiting the event and the island from October 1st to 12th 2019. Each person who has completed his/her registration is entitled to the same discount for 3 more people (if these are his/her escorts) or for 4 people (if these are family members).
