Is Santorini Gay friendly

Mill Houses Hotel, Firostefani, Santorini

In one answer yes, it may not be as over the top as Mykonos, but locals are fairly ambivalent to your sexual orientation, I thinks it's an ideal destination for gay couples, 

 There's not really any gay-specific nightlife as such, unlike Mykonos, but if your slightly older and sick of the scene this can be a relief, Try Firostefani, Perissa or Perivolos, I know that many gay couples who've been, Generally Santorini is an ideal destination, relaxed, tolerant and with views that are visually striking.

 You can fly there from Manchester with  Easyjet.com or AirX (Loloflights.com) who are offering a free baggage offer   freebaggagepagev1.gr8.com  and free inflight sandwich and 31ins seat pitch.

Santorini a unique island

Santorini(orThíra) is 
Santorini at 30,000 feet
Crescent-shaped,it's unique in the Aegean, it is actually made up by a number of islands Thíra, Asproníssi, Thirassiá, Nea Kaméni and Palea in Cyclades, it's the southernmost part
The Santorini islands are still a active volcano 3,600 years ago the last big eruption occurred (during the Minoan Age), when igneous material (mainly ash, pumice and lava stones) covered the three islands (Thirassiá, Thíra and Asproníssi). 
There was a previous prehistoric civilization which was destroyed by the eruptionl , evidence of which was found during the excavations of a settlement at Akrotíri. 
These days Santorini is increasingly becoming a luxury location visited by Cruise ships, it has some fantastic hotels  and is well worth choosing as your Summer holiday destination.

Santorini's History


Santorini is unique by the fact of it’s history, 1600 BC there was a tremendous Volcanic explosion that left the island with the remnants of that explosion and the outer edges of the Volcano, it buried the island beneath layers of pozzuolona siliceous volcanic ash) The explosion was so great it ended the Minoan Civilisation in Crete to the south of the island. There had been Human habitation on Santorini for thousands of years before, but all habitation ended for approximately 300 years returning 1300 BC.

Herodotus, called the island Strongyle (the Round one).it was also called Kalliste (the Fairest one). it was settled by the Phoenicians and the Lacedaemonians who gave the island the Theras named after their leader..

In the 9th century B.C. Thera, became an important point on the communication route between the East and the West of that era and adopted the Phoenician alphabet for writing the Greek language.

In about 620-30 B.C., Therans colonised the north coast of the African continent (Now Libya) where they founded their Theran colony Cyrene, In the 5th and 4th century BC) Thera played an important role during the Peloponnesian War when it sided with Sparta, and became an important base for Alexander the Great where he launched a number of successful campaigns because of it’s geographic strategic position. Also because of it’s strategic position it was valued by the Roman Empire, Christianity reached the island in the 4th century AD.
