Two different kinds of update this week — one visual, one about getting an important fact right.
What's new
- Images: eight of the site's highest-priority pages — best time to visit, getting here, drone rules, the FAQ, Oia, beaches, Assyrtiko, and hotel profiles — now have dedicated hero art, extending the illustrated system beyond just the homepage and hub pages.
- Plan gained a researched page on the real earthquake swarm that affected Santorini in February 2025 — a state of emergency, a magnitude 5.2-5.3 peak, over 11,000 people evacuated, and a full recovery by spring 2025. If you'd heard something vague about "Santorini earthquakes" without knowing the details, this page has the actual timeline and current status.
As with our drone-rules and entry-requirements pages, this is exactly the category where accuracy matters most — checked against multiple independent, dated sources rather than written from general impression. Corrections go to the contact page.
Spotted something out of date, or have a correction? Let us know — we'd rather fix it fast than leave it wrong.
