Santorini, the most beautiful

Review:
I flew from London with Olympic Airways to Athens and then took an other flight to Santorini.
It was my first time in the island and was part of a little island hopping with Mykonos and Paros.
I was really impressed when I first arrived on the island. From the plane, the island looked like the hidden island of Captain Nemo. It was really incredible. We coul clearly see the impressive geology of the island, the villages on the cliffs, the volcano. It was really fascinating. When we arrived we had a transfer to our hotel in the village of Fira. The hotel was fine but we saw some really luxurious hotels there and just hope that I will one day have the budget to afford one. The village itself was really beautiful but crowded. It has some really picturesque parts but I felt in love with the village of Oia.
The beaches were fine as the afternoons were really hot and was characterised but the red and black sand. I had never seen that before but was much more impressed by the beaches of Mykonos!

In general I loved the 3 islands but for different reasons. Santorini for the beauty, Mykonos for the charm and Paros for the relaxation.
