The iconic white-and-blue paradise of Santorini is literally shaking beneath tourists' feet. Thousands of small earthquakes have rocked the Greek island over the past two weeks, sparking both scientific curiosity and low-key alarm.
The Ground Beneath Paradise
Built on a massive volcanic caldera formed by an ancient eruption, Santorini is no stranger to tremors. But marine geophysicist Jens Karstens tells NewspaperAmigo: 'This event is larger than what was experienced before in modern records.'
Scientists are deploying military-grade tech to monitor the activity 24/7, with even veterans admitting this situation feels different. 'I haven't experienced something like this before,' says Karstens.
What's Next?
While past seismic spikes fizzled out quietly, experts warn: 'The option that it might be a large earthquake or a kind of eruption is real.' But don't cancel your vacation yet – researchers emphasize they're still gathering data to separate normal 'volcano breathing' from actual red flags.
As tech-packed boats circle the island's port, one thing's clear: Mother Nature's still writing Santorini's story. Stay tuned for updates!
