Luxury Santorini Holidays
For the quintessential Greek isle, look no further than Santorini. Towns perching on the edge of an extinct volcano, glorious sunsets, beautiful villages... truly a favoured bolthole for romantic escapees. Santorini's extraordinary shape can be traced back to around 1,600 BC when a massive volcanic explosion blew out the middle of the island, creating the impressive sea-filled crater. The settlements of Fira and Oia are perched upon these reddish-black cliffs that plummet three-hundred metres into the deep-blue crater waters, and offer the quintessential Greek experience with their postcard-perfect, whitewashed, cubic buildings and blue-domed churches typical of the Cyclades. They are particularly romantic at sunset and offer a fine array of dining and night-cap options.
