About This Image

In Santorini, you’ll find yourself in one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world. Stand on the hanging cliffs of the famous submerged caldera, the volcano’s crater that formed the island after an eruption in 1500 BC. Admire the contrast of the lively white and blue colors of the Cycladic houses against the black volcanic rock. GeoEye-1 .50-meter resolution collected 3 July 2010.
