There’s nothing quite like experiencing a Santorini sunset, as the island’s viewpoints offer some of the most stunning sights in the Cyclades. However, it can be challenging to find a spot that isn’t overrun with tourists.

One of the best ways to soak in the Caldera views is to take a leisurely stroll along the Fira to Oia Walking Path. This path meanders beneath the main road of the island, providing a tranquil and serene atmosphere to enjoy the uninterrupted vistas. You don’t have to walk the entire route to enjoy the beauty – the stretch between Fira-Firostefani-Imerovigli is perfect for a relaxing sunset walk!

For a truly memorable sunset experience, head to Skaros Rock, a striking rock formation that extends into the sea. A short hike from the trailhead at Imerovigli will lead you to breathtaking views, so make sure to wear appropriate footwear. Be cautious of the rocky terrain, especially when making your way back in the dark after sunset.

Since this is a self-guided tour, you have the freedom to adjust the itinerary and stops based on your preferences and desired pace of travel.
