Recommended Travel Adaptor for Santorini
We tried many adaptors while travelling and checked them against strict criteria. Safety, performance and price were key. The adaptor below came out on top.
Left your adaptor at home? Airports and local shops tend to have them. But having your own is safer, cheaper, and far less stressful.
Santorini is often combined with nearby destinations like Cyprus and Italy. It’s worth checking those pages too — plug types and voltage can vary between countries.
Sockets in Santorini
Santorini uses Type C and F plugs and sockets.
Type C
Type C sockets have two round pins and no grounding. Unlike Type G, they take a slimmer plug without an earth pin or fuse.
Type F
Type F sockets have two round pins with two earth clips on the side. UK Type G plugs do not fit into Type F sockets.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
Voltage converters are only necessary if there’s a mismatch. In Santorini the mains supply is more or less the same as in the UK, so you’re fine.
Check the mains rating on your device before travelling. A mark of ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’ means it’ll work abroad without any converter.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
If you’re looking to travel smarter, these are the items to bring. A luggage scale makes sure your bag isn’t tipping the limits, a power bank gives your gadgets a second life, and packing cubes make living out of a suitcase easy. They’re small, affordable, and seriously handy.
