SANTORINI

The island of Santorini, as it stands today, was formed 3,500 years ago by a monstrous volcanic eruption. The eruption created a large hole in the middle of the island, which turned into a bay when the waters of the Aegean filled it in. The island remains the home of a small but flourishing wine industry, based on the indigenous Assyrtiko grape, with auxiliary cultivations of Aegean white varieties such as Athiri and Aidani and the varieties such as Mavrotragano and Mandilaria.

The power of the volcanic island of Santorini creates an energy that overwhelms the senses.

Exquisite luxury, amazing food and wine and its unforgettable sunsets are just the start of what this legendary Greek island in the Cyclades offers visitors. Santorini is also known for its infinity pools that flirt with the edge of cliffs. Seeing the Aegean Sea laid out in all its glory from one of these pools is an especially romantic experience. Due to its captivating beauty, the island has a growing reputation as a wedding destination for couples not only from Greece but from all over the world.
