Mykonos - the most famous island in the Cyclades
Mykonos is the most famous island in the Cyclades. Its re-putation has spread during the last years due to its unique lan-dscape, its archeological sites, its cosmopolitan environment and its magnificent seas. Mykonos is an island that is full of contradictions. The contradicting elements that are apparent in this small stretch of land, give the island a distinct eccentricity.
Mykonos sways between the traditional and the contemporary, from the simple to the complex, and from the accustomed and unaccustomed elements.
Santorini
Santorini, a wild beauty created from a cosmogony by a volcano that lies in the middle of the bay. On top of it, in the edge of the rock is the reconciliation of the wild and the weird.
The terrain is volcanic and from the side of the volcano is rocky.
The climate is cool because of the northeast winds. The winter is mild with lowest temperature of 10C.
During wintertime, rain is more frequent but non-existent during summer time.
The fertile ground helps the cultivation of vines and tomatoes.
The island is dry with only a few springs.
