The volcanic island of the Cyclades, Santorini, lies 128 miles from the port of Piraeus, and presents a breathtaking site from the water with white house perched on the cliff top. It covers an area of 75 square kilometers and has about 10 000 permanent residents.
Santorini enjoys a typical Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild winters. In July and August the mercury can soar to 40 Celsius (over 100 Fahrenheit). July and August are also the months of the meltemi, a northerly wind that sweeps the Aegean. The wind reduces humidity and offers welcome relief from the heat. November is when the rains start in most areas.
Due to its volcanic nature, local goods are produced in small quantities but are of excellent quality. Santorini produces some of the best wines from all over the world such as \'nichtere\' , \'brusko\', \'malavazias\' and \'Visanto\'. A special hybrid of small tasty tomatoes are grown and exported to produce the famous \'belte\' (tomato paste). Furthermore Santorini exports pumice stone, used worldwide.
Romance, view and peace are the three words that most accurately describe the village of Imerovigli.
The view and natural beauty are simply spectacular: bare red and black earth meets the deep blue waters...
The linear settlement of Imerovigli was developed on the highest point, 300 meters above the famous caldera, and was inhabited as early as the mid 16th century. The name dates back to the pirate\'s occupation and means \'day observation post\'.
