Lying between the Ionian and Aegean seas, Greece expands from borders on the Balkan Peninsula out into the water, dotting the region with more than 1,400 islands. Greece boasts beauty and a fascinating human history that links to 12,000 B.C. Tracing the region’s history during a journey to Greece naturally becomes part of a visitor’s adventure, as ubiquitous ancient ruins, such as the Acropolis and Parthenon, appear throughout the country.
Surrounding Delos, a sacred Greek island, the Cyclades boast everything
a traveler envisions when thinking about Greece. Mykonos is home to hills filled whitewashed buildings and marble streets, while fishing boats fill the surrounding sea. According to legend, the island is the namesake of Apollo’s grandson.
Walking through the town of Chora, visit Panayia Paraportiani, a group of churches that were completed over the course of approximately 200 years, during the 15th through 17th centuries. The expansive white buildings are set atop a hill, making the location ideal for watching the setting sun. Also, impressive around the time of sunset is Kato Myli, the familiar site that boasts six windmills, each of which are covered with thatched roofs. The view from Kato Myli affords views of the town below, with its winding streets and lively atmosphere.
The archipelago of Santorini comprises Thíra, Thirassiá, Asproníssi, Palea and Nea Kaméni – islands that are still part of the active Hellenic Volcanic Arc. Despite the violent volcanic activity that created Santorini, the destination is renowned for its romantic setting. Overlooking the sea, many of the villages sit atop cliffs affording expansive views.
Santorini’s main island, Thira, was settled in 9 B.C. Many of its ruins and artifacts date back to the Hellenic period. The Sanctuary of Apollo Karneios traces its roots to the 6th century B.C. This site, a testament to the faith and craftsmanship of the island’s inhabitants, includes a temple, cistern, and smaller buildings, which locals believe might have been a sacristy.
Depending on personal taste, the different seasons afford a variety of Greek- Isle experiences. Travelers who revel in coastal summer fun in the sun should wait until the months between June and August, but beware, as tourists from around the world descend upon the area in search of the perfect Greek holiday. During the spring, the region will experience more temperate weather and fewer tourists, which affords a calmer, more relaxing atmosphere.
REDEFINING LUXURY
From the private beach to the swimming pools and from the stylish experience in Reef Boutique to organizing a memorable and ultra-romantic wedding, the Santa Marina Resort & Villas still is a premier accommodation choice in Mykonos that combines cosmopolitan lifestyle with modern comforts and uber chic aesthetic.
