    UPDATE : Many restaurants have increased their prices following the 2022 inflation, so expect prices 20-30% higher than what I say in the video :-)

    For oia I have been going to the same spot I found in 2008. It was such a nice experience I didn't care to look. I almost always try different places and should try the others on this list. But I have been 4 times to Strogyli.

    Temperature will be around 20 celsius during the day, 15 in the evening (so you need warm clothes for the night !) October usually has 3-4 rainy days, so if you're unlucky it might hit you during your stay, just keep that in mind.

    These all look so good! Sorry for all the questions, but which between Meltini Fino, or Lefkes would you say is your favorite/ or recommend most? We only have 2 nights in Oia book until we move to Fira. I made a reservation to Petra as you recommend that in another video and I thought it looked romantic. However I'm having a hard time deciding which restaurant we should visit the second night? Also one of the days we wanted to go swimming in amoudi bay so i thought I'd be nice to go for lunch at Amoudi fish taverna have you been before? Is tge food any good or is it judt touristy?
