Starting in 2019, the island capped daily cruise ship arrivals at 8,000. “The island is saturated,” Mayor Nikos Zorzos told media. The mayor said the overflow of tourists has put too much strain on the island’s infrastructure and supply. Nearly half of the 2 million visitors coming to Santorini are day visitors come on cruise ships that stay on the island an average of seven hours, cruise operators and local officials told the WSJ. The island attracts more than 10,000 visitors a day on some of the summer’s busiest days.
