With a small population of approximately 14,000, this 73-square-kilometer world-famous island is a top travel destination. Santorini, in the southern Aegean's Cyclades islands of Greece, is one of the most beautiful locations on the globe. It brings together heavenly sea-views with historic mountainous and volcanic scenes.
