5. Atlantis Books, Santorini, Greece

Who would not refuse refuge from the hot sun in this incredible bookshop in Santorini? Located in the basement of a villa that sits on a cliff top and a terrace that looks out over the bluest of blue Aegean Sea, you will find a wealth of books, novels including cult ones in a setting that is simply mind blowing. This is the ideal bookshop in Paradise, where you can find a page or two to read in a book that has been thrown down by the Gods themselves onto a villa in heaven.
