Santorini, Greece
Santorini, located in the Cyclades island group in Greece, is already a spectacularly colorful vacation destination. The houses are all painted stark white, which contrast with the deep blues of the sea and the colorful rooftops. However, all this color pales in comparison to the sunrises that visitors can see from this island. The raised hills of the island afford it amazing views over the ocean, which makes it easier to see the spectacle of the sun rising slowly from the water. For the best sunrise spots away from tourists, try the village of Oia, or ancient Thira.
