Travel ideas: Santorini, Greece

Why go there?

The volcanic rocks of Santorini, which have the shape of a crescent moon, reveal its shocking history. Today, the island is dominated by incredible natural beauty and a large dose of undeniable Greek charm.

Its steep slopes are full of whitewashed, cave houses and small churches with blue roofs, but it is worth discovering the center of the island. The impressive prehistoric archeological sites in Akrotiri and Fira testify to the history of the catastrophic eruption of the volcano on the island. Find shelter from the afternoon sun in the coolness of a tavern and enjoy delicacies of Greek cuisine, such as saganaki, spinach pie and souvlaki.

With the waters of the Aegean dominating around and above the underwater crater, the view from the island is magnificent in every direction. The crowds gather in Oia and Imerovigli, so if you want to enjoy the landscape more quietly, take a boat trip, find a secluded beach or climb to the lonely lighthouse of Akrotiri. Once the sun sets on the horizon, you will find many bars in Fira, while in Kamari and Perissa you will find beach clubs and cocktail bars.
