The beautiful island of Santorini with the stunning sunset and the picturesque alleys, but also Mykonos, the island of the Winds, won the first and eleventh place, respectively, among the 16 best islands in the world!
Specifically, the valid USNews journal published an article with the 16 best islands in the world and the Greek islands had to compete with the imaginary islands and earthly paradises of Pacific and Indian Ocean, such as Maldives and the exotic Fiji islands.
The basic criteria for an island to be included in the list, according to the authors of the newspaper, was not only having beautiful natural landscape and stunning beaches, but also having the “magic spark”, something extra that will keep travelers enchanted.
