Santorini is known for its stunning beauty, unique architecture, and rich history. This volcanic island is the result of a massive volcanic eruption that occurred thousands of years ago, leaving behind a crescent-shaped caldera and dramatic cliffs overlooking the deep blue sea.Exploring Santorini means immersing oneself in its fascinating history. The ancient Minoan city of Akrotiri, often referred to as the "Minoan Pompeii," offers a glimpse into the island's past. Preserved under volcanic ash, the ruins reveal an advanced civilization that once thrived here.
