Adventures On The Greek Island Of Santorini and its famous Sunset from Oia: Pronounced 'Eea', the town of Oia is situated on the cliffs of the beautiful island of Santorini (on Thera) and is famous for its stunning sunset. It's located on the Northern most tip of the caldera and clings to the cliffs here. It can be reached by a narrow winding road that leads it way up to the town. Most evenings a crowd of people gather on the coastline here, sitting on walls, steps, by the castle and even taking cruises out on the local boat trips - pausing between the Caldera here and the island itself to watch the sunset disappear slowly across the horizon, shimmering across the water as it does so. It is considered one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world by many and is part of what attracts many tourists to Santorini on a yearly basis.
