Missing the last tender boat back to the ship β€” Check ship schedules and plan to return early; contingency is a 30-minute stroll or short taxi ride to cable car station.
Crowds at popular sunset spots like Oia β€” Choose a unique location like Honeymoon Petra Villas for a quieter, panoramic view.
