The island resort of Perivolos is is to be found on the present day island of Santorini. The island was created by an immense eruption before 1650 B.C. leaving the legacy of a deep crater called a caldera. The eruption has formed striking volcanic precipices with terrifying sheer drops into the caldera. The peak of the still active part of the volcano now forms a tiny island in the bay. If you've been looking for a really stunning and romantic Greek island holiday then you're sure to discover the unique attractions of Santorini, so why don't you book a holiday in Perivolos.

Marvelous beaches, traditional tavernas and a calming ambience – Santorini is stuffed with tempting spots like this. But not all beaches are created equal. In the sand stakes, Perivolos is without doubt at the top of the heap. We're not talking about the kind of ten-a-penny golden sands you'll uncover anywhere in the world either. In pretty Perivolos you'll reveal glittering black sand that stretches as far as the eye can see. It's washed by luminous turquoise waters so clear you are able to see the sun shimmering off the black pebble bottom. And it's one of the most tranquil beaches in Santorini, too. Put simply, it's striking. That's not to say there's nothing to do here. There's loads of watersports on offer down on the shore. Not to mention a generous sprinkling of bars and restaurants. Spend lazy sundrenched days dancing across the waves on a jetski. Tuck into steaming hot pitta breads and houmous at a seafront taverna. Or travel further afield and walk the length of the beach to Perissa. However you select to spend your days in this bewitching place, you're guaranteed the holiday of a lifetime.
