SANTORINI - Santorini is totally unlike any other place on earth. The original circular island was blown apart nearly 3,000 years ago by a fierce volcanic eruption. Today one can look and wonder at the beauty created by natural destruction. The main town of Fira is clustered along the cliff edge and plunges almost 900 feet into the sea. Santorini is not only sheer cliffs, for its outer coast has incredibly long black volcanic beaches. The major archeological site of Akrotiri, where part of a Minoan settlement is being excavated may prove to be a new Pompeii.
