Set in the heart of the Galápagos archipelago, Santiago Island offers a raw and untamed landscape shaped by volcanic forces. Unlike more developed islands in the region, Santiago remains largely uninhabited, giving visitors a rare look at ecosystems that have evolved with minimal human presence. Its coastline shifts from black lava fields to soft sandy beaches, while inland trails reveal hardened flows and scattered vegetation slowly reclaiming the terrain.

Eluding Ottoman oppression sure makes you beautiful! Besides breathtaking beaches and lovely pools, this Greek island in the Ionian Sea offers many charms, from its Old Town (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) to Venetian fortresses to cypresses waving in the ocean breeze. Corfu's Byzantine castle, Angelokastro, is located on a dramatic hilltop and offers stunning views. In Greek mythology, Odysseus was washed ashore on Corfu but soon left the island... we recommend staying awhile in this cobalt paradise.
