What is Santorini?
Santorini, officially Thira, is an island in the southern Aegean Sea, about 200 km (120 mi) southeast of Greece’s mainland. It is the largest island of a small, circular Archipelago, which bears the same name and is the remnant of volcanic caldera. It forms the southernmost member of the Cyclades group of islands, with an area of approximately 73 km² (28 sq mi).
A World-Famous Destination Thera, Therassia, Aspronisi and the volcanoes Palea Kameni and Nea Kameni form the cluster of islands which is called Santorini. Today, Santorini is the only inhabited Caldera (volcano cauldron) in the world. Santorini is one of the most popular islands in Greece or even one the world’s most famous island. There are few travel destinations that combine unique Caldera towering cliffs above the sea, spectacular scenery, ancient and prehistoric cities, some of the world’s best wine, and an active volcano.
Santorini has to offer such a variety of flavors and aromas.
Due to the volcanic ground in Santorini one could find one of the most interesting types of cherry-tomatoes, white eggplants, yellow split peas -Lathyrus clymenum- which gives us the famous dish called “fava” which has nothing to do with fava beans (Broad beans), katsounia (a local type of cucumbers), capers and of course the grapes which are producing the famous Santorini wines.
There are many wineries and a local factory for canning tomato paste and tomatoes.
