9Anafi

A little-known secret, Anafi is one of the least visited islands in the Cyclades despite being just 22km (14mi) from Santorini.  

Greek mythology claims the island emerged from the bottom of the sea to give shelter to the Argonauts, and its wild natural beauty, rocky hillsides and turquoise waters still feel like a sight for sore eyes some 3,000 years later.
