Amoudi Bay

For beautiful views of the caldera, descend the 300 steps from the northern city of Oia to the tiny port of Amoudi Bay. Surrounded by steep cliffs, this little fishing area features several little tavernas serving up the catch of the day. According to one TripAdvisor user, "This is the most picturesque place on the island. … We had some wine and baklava and watched the sunset at one of the restaurants, just steps from the water. Also saw some of the fresh fish being delivered. It was simply amazing." According to recent visitors, this is the best place to catch a Santorini sunset.
