Is it worth it to go to Santorini?

Yes, but understand a few things. If you go during peak summer season it will be crowded and expensive. Santorini's beaches are nice, but the main features are the views over the caldera in Oia (and the rest of the island) and the excellent food and wine. At least that's what I liked the best!
