Admire the sunset from Oia
Start with one of the most recognizable locations and travel to Oia for a leisurely afternoon stroll through this town perched on a rock. The historic hilltop village of Oia is the best place to view a Santorini sunset. Find the ideal vantage point among a sea of white buildings and blue-domed churches, and then watch as a blaze of orange and crimson fills the sky in front of you.
Consider taking a guided tour to some of Oia's more secluded and unknown sites for the finest sunset experience rather than congregating in the touristy sections. Even better, find a beautiful restaurant terrace to idle away the evening with a glass of wine in hand.
If you’re looking to watch the sunset, you can either find a spot in the town itself or book a table in one of the restaurants that overlook the town. If crowds aren’t your thing, head to the Monastery of Profitis Ilias on the other end of the island where you’ll see the sunset over the whole island.
