Santorini island, Greece. |
Santorini or Thira as it is otherwise named, is one of the most beautiful, romantic and intriguing Greek island. It is the most southern island of the Cyclades in the south of the Aegean sea.
There
you can see the most stunning sunsets, amazing white, red and black
sand beaches, beautiful scenery with impresive traditional houses,
balconies with view to the Volcano, all the above, along with the
remains of the antiquity and the myth of the Lost Atlantis make it as of
the most stunning island not only in the Greece but all around the
world. Fira, Oia, Imerovigli
are just some of the villages that are built into the cliffs with
magnificent view of the Aegean sea, the volcano and the nearby islands
of Ios, Folegandros and Sikinos.

Santorini is essentially what remains after an enormous volcanic eruption that destroyed the earliest settlements on a formerly single island, and created the current geological caldera. The active volcano of Santorini erupted in the 50's and ruined many towns of the island. Santorini's capital is the town of
Fira. Santorini and Anafi are the only locations in Europe to feature a hot desert climate. Santorini generally experiences two seasons. April to October is the warm and dry season and the cold and rainy season lasts from November to March.
