Santorini, classically and officially Thira, is an island in the southern Aegean Sea, about 200 km southeast of Greece's mainland. It is the largest island of a small, circular line . It forms the southernmost member of the Cyclades group of islands, with an area of approximately 73 km² . The municipality of Santorini includes the inhabited islands of Santorini and Therasia and the uninhabited islands of Nea Kameni, Palaia Kameni, Aspronisi, and Christiana. The total land area is 90.623 km² .

Santorini is part of the Thira regional unit.

Santorini is essentially what remains after an enormous volcanic eruption-that destroyed the earliest settlements on a formerly single island, and created the current geological caldera. The main island slopes downward to the Aegean Sea. On the fourth side, the lagoon is separated from the sea by another much smaller island called Therasia.

The depth of the caldera is at 400m !

There is also a harbour at Vlychada, on the southwestern coast. The island's principal port is Athinias. The capital, Fira, clings to the top of the cliff looking down on the lagoon. The volcanic rocks present from the prior eruptions - a special feature of material .

It is the most active volcanic centre in the South Aegean Volcanic Arc, though what remains today is chiefly a water-filled caldera. The volcanic arc is approximately 500 km long and 20 to 40 km wide.

The region first became volcanically active around 3–4 million years ago, though volcanism on Thera began around 2 million years ago,with the extrusion of dacitic lavas from vents around the Akrotiri.

The island is the site of one of the largest volcanic eruptions in recorded history: the Minoan eruption (sometimes called the Thera eruption), which occurred some 3,600 years ago at the height of the Minoan civilization. The eruption left a large caldera surrounded by volcanic ash deposits, hundreds of metres deep and may have led indirectly to the collapse of the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete, through a gigantic tsunami.
