How to get to Santorini
And here we are at the emblem of Greece, the romantic Santorni island. When you think of the Aegean, the first thing you think of is always the historic, particular and magical Santorini.
A pearl in the middle of the sea in the archipelago of the Cyclades Islands with volcanic origins that was once a "normal" island with a round shape which, after a violent underwater volcanic eruption in the 15th century BC, practically sank its center giving it its current shape. but creating a unique landscape in the world.
High cliffs that rise like sentinels to protect the island, sunsets among the most beautiful in the world, black, red and white beaches, towns perched on the mythical cliff overlooking the enchanting and bewitching Caldera where everyone wants to come at least once in their life to say I've been there!
Especially loved by couples for a romantic elopement or honeymoon to have memorable moments for a lifetime. Families also like it a lot but remember that it is all an up and down especially the villages of Thira, Imerovigli or Oia where you cannot circulate with a vehicle but only and exclusively on foot in the middle of stairs carved into the mountains which however offer a marvellous view.
Santorini is a very particular island, not everyone likes it, the sea is certainly not among the most beautiful of the Greek Islands since it immediately becomes deep and the seabed is mainly rocky, thus giving extremely clean but dark blue waters and dangerous if you are not a good swimmer. It is perfect for a relaxing holiday in Greece and for going around to discover important archaeological sites such as Akrotiri and almost lunar landscapes.
The myth of Atlantis revolves around Santorini, the legendary island mentioned by Plato as a maritime power and a super evolved society compared to the period in which it lived which conquered lands up to Etruria and Egypt even before 9600 BC.
