Oia is a scenic village on the north west edge of the Santorini island within the Cyclades offers amazing sunsets. During all seasons of the year, there are hordes of people and couples with cameras flocking to the Venetian Palace (ruins) to experience the spectacle.

Photography Tips

Oia is a day-or-two worth a visit and while it offers many great clicks, it will prove to be a bit frustrating. Tourists, newly wedded couples and photographers who will make it harder for you to get the shots but not impossible. Patience is the key. A tripod is necessary.

Travel Information

Late April / early May is a good time, You can get here by boats or by flights from Athens and then by bus or by taxi.

P.S.
Once you enter the gates of Oia, the Caldera is actually accessible by foot or donkeys so the GPS given is an indication - all you need to do is get as early as possible to the roof of Oia's Venetian Castle (Ruins). See google maps
