Cyclades Among 7 Most Romantic Destinations

Business Insider places the island group of Cyclades, Aegean Sea, Greece among the seven most romantic places in the world. The article states that Cyclades are the ideal destination for both honeymooners and seasoned travelers. “There are some places in the world where there is romance in the air. From the cherry blossom-lined streets of Kyoto to sensual tango dancing in Buenos Aires,” says the article noting that romance isn’t just a candlelit dinner. Cyclades were placed in seventh place thanks to their “shimmering turquoise-blue waters  and rustic mountains, bright sun, and delicious food.” The article praises Santorini, the most famous of the island group, with “its breathtaking sunsets and dramatic white stone cliffs.” The Greek island of Naxos the biggest of Cyclades, is also mentioned thanks to its “long, sandy beaches, and stunning green valleys and ravines.” Tourists are advised to visit Cyclades in the spring or fall since in the summer the islands are overwhelmed by visitors and the weather is stormy. Business Insider’s list includes Bali, Indonesia (1st place), Bruge, Belgium (2nd place), Buenos Aires, Argentina (3rd place), Charleston, South Carolina (4th place), Cinque Terre, Italian Riviera (5th place) and Fez, Morocco (6th place).
