Santorini Island, Greece
The striking black sand beaches and bright white buildings with ocean blue roofs create a surreal beauty on this Grecian island. Created out of one of the largest volcanic eruptions in history about 3,600 years ago, Santorini Island is a completely unique location for travelers. The views are unlike any other place on Earth, which brings in 1.5 million visitors yearly.
However, along with those breathtaking views are prices that may also take your breath away. The accommodations and restaurants take full advantage of the tourist draw. Additionally, those views that the island is Instagram famous for are frequently obscured by haziness. The West Coast’s extremely steep terrain can be very difficult to navigate, as well as the steep drops along the cliff sides. Those steeps trails and cliffside drops are worsened by the throngs of other visitors. Take advantage of the off season and visit during the fall months to best experience Santorini Island.
