Flying to Santorini
Santorini is definitely one of the most popular destinations in Greece. It is also considered one of the most spectacular and stunning landscapes in the whole world. This incredible scenery attracts thousands of visitors every year. The island faces the Caldera, the famous submerged volcano crater situated in the middle of a basin of water. The first eruption of the volcano is estimated to have happened around 1500 BC, and many specialists have blamed it for the destruction of the great Minoan civilization.
The last eruption dates to 1956, and the volcano is still alive today. Some legends lead us to believe that the destruction of Santorini could be related to the Mythical Atlantis After the great eruption, the centre of the island sank in the sea, leaving only the crater and the imposing cliffs of 150m to 300m in height. From these cliffs, one can admire some of the most stunning little villages that seem suspended in the sky. These villages are made of white typical Cycladic houses with blue painted windows facing the black volcanic rock of the Caldera: a sight that has inspired more than one artist. When the horizon behind the caldera is suffused by the amazing colours of the sunset, it has been described as one of the most striking views in the world.
