As with all of Greece, Santorini is steeped in history and archaeological wonders. It has long been argued that this was the site of the legendary `Lost City of Atlantis` and as you walk through the ancient Minoan ruins you will surely be swept up in its mystical past.

Despite being a volcanic island there are still many fine dark sandy beaches with Perissa and Kamari being two of the island`s best. Other places to visit include the active volcano and hot springs of Nea Makri.
Perhaps the most famous and last impressions of Santorini are the unequalled views across the caldera, which are at there most impressive from the north west of the island. It is a cosmopolitan and quite expensive place compared to other parts of Greece however its extraordinary sea views and cliff top locations make it an essential place to visit. It must be one of the most stunning settings in the world in which to enjoy a sunset drink.
