The ultimate greek island

by SirRichard - last update: Dec 12, 2003

View of Thiressia from Oia
When U think of a greek island, U R thinking of Santorini. Its white houses, its impressive cliffs, its blue waters...
Santorini, also called Thira (pronounce it F-ee-ra) was a circular island till in 1650 BC a huge explosion left just the outskirts of it. Nowadays the villages are on top of the cliff of the crater, and in the middle is a fantastic bay with many little volcanic islands.

Pros:"Its beautiful scenery"
Cons:"Always crowded, packed of tourists"
In A Nutshell:"If U have to choose visiting just 1 island, come here!"
