Santorin
The world famous Santorin, one of the Cycladic islands
positioned at the edge of the Aegean Sea, has a lot to offer to its
visitors. Its magnificent setting on the brim of the volcano makes
it a unique and a favorite spot in Greece, if not worldwide.
Many people are visiting this volcanic island every year, just to
capture a few colorful and silent moments that mother nature offers
during sunset. For many people, this is the most romantic moment of
their life...
But this island offers a lot more - something that customary visitors
take no notice of. The prehistoric city of Akrotiri, the caldera
trekking paths, the wine routes that first appeared in the year 3000
B.C., Santorin's exquisite cuisine...the cherry tomatoes, the white
eggplants, the yellow split beans (Fava) and a large selection of sun
dried products.
The considerable variety of Santorin's grapes, cultivated with
minimal irrigation under the Mediterranean sun and hit by the salty
breeze of the sea gives them a distinctive grade in wine production.
Colorful Santorin with its black, red and white beaches, coves and
reeves. Santorin, the island of unique architecture and design, the
island of culture and history.
Santorin, not only is the ideal holiday delight offering its
visitors relaxation but also a taste of adventure, romance and fun.
