Oia
It is considered the most beautiful village of the island. It used to be a city of captains, because there used to be a small shipyard, and there are still beautiful houses and mansions preserved. Breathtaking view of the caldera, marbled narrow streets, shops, traditional local houses and hotels, all built on the edge of the cliff. The atmosphere here is magical at the time of the sunset, which Oia is famous of. You should also visit the Naval Museum which is housed in a traditional captain's mansion. Oia haw two picturesque ports, Armeni and Ammoudi. Both are right below the village, you can either walk down (about 250 steps) or by donkeys. Ammoudi is also reachable by bike or car and the view here is also magical. A small jetty with taverns next to each other with local delicacies and fresh fish continues all the way behind the cliff, where it takes you across the small church of Agios Nikolaos, built on a rock. Ammoudi is also suitable for swimming for the daring, as it is not a beach, but the deep blue mysterious waters dare you for a dive.
