One of the 39 Cyclades islands Santorini or Thira as its known locally is in the middle of the Greek islands of the Aegean Sea.

It's one of the most consistently popular holiday destinations in Greece and boasts a reputation for having the most spectacular and stunning landscapes in the whole world.

A huge claim but which few would dispute after having visited, especially after relishing the amazing views offered from villages such as Fira with its tiny narrow streets and white painted houses all with their distinctive azure coloured doors and windows. Oia is a village like so many on the island sits, perched atop a cliff and with its terraced vantage point you can watch the sunset, a justly celebrated Santorini experience. Who can then dispute a place which boasts both red and black beaches, where tales of Atlantis started, and where all these visual and sensual delights can as heady as the good wine fermented on the islands leeward slopes -do try a glass of the local white Assyrtiko (preferably Siglas 2002)

Marrying or honeymooning here is akin to living a classic love story you will both be certain to 'lose your hearts' in this idyllic place but are then guaranteed to take home the sunniest and most romantic of memories.
