4Spending Too Much Time Chasing the Perfect Sunset Photo

Santorini sunsets are legendary, but don’t let your entire trip revolve around them.

Some visitors spend every evening jostling for the best photo spot in Oia, phones in hand and elbows out. Instead, choose one or two nights for the classic sunset experience, then try alternatives: watch the sun dip from a winery terrace, a boat on the caldera, or a quiet chapel in Pyrgos. Sometimes, the best views aren’t found on Instagram—they’re found when you simply stop and look.
