Hi,
I am not sure whether I should write Santorini Island or Santorini island, Academia Street or Academia street.
Could someone illuminate me? Thank you very much.

Hi Yemel.

I would suggest that you write the first letter of both the name and the street/island with a capital letter since they are referring to a specific place as in Fifth Avenue, Regent Street, Vancouver Island and so on.
