Best Summer Beaches 2004 - Forbes - USA 13 May 2005 Some people think the volcanic island of Santorini was once the lost city of Atlantis. While that's highly debatable, what is true is that one of the island's best beaches is Red Beach. The beach can be reached by following a footpath or by sailing up to its shore. The sand is red from volcanic ash, and there are plenty of places to snorkel, sunbathe and order lunch. Forbes Magazine Author : Christina Valhouli
