Santorini consists of three islands: Thira, Thirasia and the
Aspronisi.
Your trip in this island, the southest island of Cyclades, will be unforgettable.
You'll admire the scenery, you'll enjoy the walk through the narrow paths, you will visit
ancient Thira and you'll swim in the crystal clear sea.
Santorini is different from the rest of the
Cyclades group by virtue of its interesting geological structure, the result of the eruptions of a now
inactive volcano.
The landscape is extremely imposing on the western side of the island, where little white houses perch on top of
gigantic, steep rocks that plunge abruptly into the sea.
In contrast to the sheer cliffs on the west, the coast on the eastern side of the island has endless stretches of
beach with sand or shingle. Beaches
In the east coast there are Monolithos, Kamari and Perissa. In the south coast there are Perivolos, Ai Giorgis, Eksomitis and Blihada.Beaches near Ia are Armenis, Ammoudi and
Mpaksedes. Sports
Windsurfing. If you don't have your own surfboard, you can rent one on the island. Night Life
