People gather each evening to watch the Santorini sunset. We joined a cruise for the afternoon and our boat lined up with all the others to watch the sun go down.
The setting sun cast a pretty light over Oia.
Here is the sunset from Fira.
Our next stop after Santorini was Syros. We stayed in the port town Ermoupolis and were treated to a gorgeous sunset on our second evening.
There were 2 completely different sunrises at Ermoupolis.
Isn’t nature wonderful?
Oh Debra, that is even prettier than I remember – wonderful photos — you would have to be loving Santorini.

Beautiful place, great photos. Do you pre book before you go? or do you just travel when and where the fancy takes you. Have you found traveling round Greece easy?

I booked ahead for everything. The ferry website was a bit tricky, but everything else was OK. Transport in Greece is relatively easy to use. The biggest difficulty is the different alphabet, but people are very helpful and most speak English.

I had heard how beautiful Santorini was so we
decided to spend our honeymoon there 17 years ago. I fell in love with its unbelievable beauty and will never forget it. I would love to go back. Beautiful photos Debra.

I can understand why Santorini would be a choice for a honeymoon. It is gorgeous. We went to the Maldives, also wonderful. I would like to go back there too.

I have always wanted to go to the Maldives and want to of course go back to Greece! I will never forget sitting on the terrace staring at the caldera in Santorini and dreaming of our future life together. At the time I was in a business career and hated it. I dreamed of being a writer and fast forward 17 years and I am writing!

Yes, Nature is wonderful, Deb, thrilling us with its marvels and brilliance. I love your photos of of the different sunsets and the stunning whitewashed homes with their blue roofs and spindly windmills huddled on the rocky mountainsides. Nature and man made structures side by side make this part of the world a fascinating place to admire and explore. Thank you for sharing the marvels of your travels with us!
