Santorini is one of the most famous islands in the world because of its beauty, its special allure, and the kindness of its people.
Also known as Thira in ancient times, this island belongs to a group of islands in the Cyclades’ southernmost region.
The volcano on Santorini is one of the few active volcanoes in Greek and European land.The islands that make up Santorini were formed by intense volcanic activity: Massive eruptions caused the central part of the volcano to collapse, creating a large crater known as a caldera.
To sit in front of the caldera to behold the breathtaking view of an active volcano while enjoying the local cuisine, a drink, or a cup of coffee...It’s an unforgettable experience that must be lived at least once in a lifetime.
