Santorini is a stunning crescent-shaped island with a volcanic history, cradled within the Cyclades and known for picturesque getaways in Greece’s Aegean Sea. Here, scenic cliffside towns of Fira, Oia, and other settlements along the caldera invite you on romantic sojourns. Steep footpaths frequented by donkey taxis and quad bikes lead to blue-domed churches, painted white buildings, fascinating museums, and small squares framed by bougainvillea. Beautiful, black sand beaches and secluded coves dot the outer edge of Santorini, with swimming and scuba diving opportunities aplenty, out in the azure waters. Thanks to Santorini’s excellent volcanic conditions, myriad homegrown wineries produce delicious wines, best enjoyed at tavern terraces or infinity pools offering incredible sunset views. Dozens of coastal trails weave through villages and on sheer lava terrain that overlooks superb seascapes. Daytrips include unwinding in hot springs that fringe the caldera islets, and exploring the prehistoric, former Minoan settlement of Akrotiri.
