Santorini

Breath-taking Santorini was shaped by a massive volcanic eruption that ripped the island apart about 3,500 years ago. It created the incomparable place that has become one of the world’s most popular holiday destinations. Stunning sunsets; unusual beaches, some black or red; traditional villages; the ruins of an ancient city built before the volcano erupted and once thought to be Atlantis. And you can take a boat trip to explore the steaming islets at the centre of the sleeping volcano.

Mykonos

Mykonos is a gloriously lively perfect place to dance the night away at a beach party under a sky with a billion stars twinkling in an inky sky. It’s a fun-filled island, offering fantastic retail therapy with the loveliest designer boutiques in the main town and superb bars, restaurants and hotels.

From the photogenic 16^th century windmills above the harbour to wakeboarding on the waves, honeymooners, straight and gay holidaymakers, bucket-and-spade toting toddlers and naturists seeking secluded coves all have a place in this most cosmopolitan of destinations. Sophisticated travellers will love the trendy corners of the west-coast area known as Little Venice, with its restaurants and cocktail bars on the seafront – many converted from ‘Captain’s Cottages’ and offering an ideal spot to bathe in the glow of wonderful, romantic sunsets.
