National Geographic: Santorini's Sunset - Top Ten in the World

Anyone who has visited Greece, and traveled to the island of Santorini knows that in order to get a great view of the sunset you need to go to Oia. The view of the sunset from this side of the island was also recently recognized by the National Geographic magazine and a new article ranked it in sixth place on a list containing some of the most beautiful summer sunsets in the world.

But it gets better. The sunset of Santorini even headlined the story. (Certainly a great boost to the Greek tourism industry). And why wouldn't it be? The sunset in Santorini is a huge giant postcard, just as the article states and even though Oia is often crowded, once that color starts to break in the sky as the sun sets, you don’t notice, the crowds, the noise and the havoc... all you do is breath in deeply and sigh because the scene is breathtaking.
