Santorini
Precious Gem of the Aegean
Formed from a violent and disastrous volcanic event over 3,600 years ago, the island of Santorini was dramatically altered when the center of the island sunk into the sea. The volcanic eruption left behind three land masses that formed a ring around the sunken crater known as the caldera. As your boat sails into the caldera, the island of Thiras’ regal beauty will etch itself into your memory, forever. The villages of Fira, Firostefani, Imerovigli and Oia line the top of the dark, volcanic cliffs forming a breathtaking crown of white and blue. When you first pull into the docks, you will begin by exploring narrow streets and picturesque homes in the fishing village. Take a cable car, a donkey ride or trek up the steps on your memorable journey to the clifftops. This is one of the most breathtaking and romantic destinations. Its views will leave you gasping for breath and the friendly people will melt your heart. Wake-up early for the sunrise and stay up late for the sunsets and enjoy some of the best views in the world.
