Santorini, known since ancient times as Thira, is one of the most famous islands in the world! The fact that you can sit in front of the caldera, enjoy local dishes, a drink or a coffee while gazing at the remarkable beauty of an active volcano is priceless!
The island is actually a group of islands consisting of Thira, Thirassia, Aspronissi, Palea and Nea Kameni in the southernmost part of the Cyclades.
Fira is the picturesque capital of the island perched on the top edge of the Caldera, 260m above sea level, offering breathtaking views to the Aegean Sea and the island of Nea Kameni. Along the border of the caldera, you’ll come across the renowned villages of Oia – the whole village looks like a work of art as the houses are carved into the lava rock – Imerovigli and Firostefani, which are the best spots for you to get your sunset views.
In the island you can hit the hiking trails to see the very best best she has to offer. Take scenic walks up and down the jagged coast, and unwrap the legends of the island. Dive to the Aegean crystal waters, explore the ancient civilization to Akrotiri, taste the local food and wine at the traditional villages and learn the ways of local life.
