  • Oia, Santorini

    Oia, Santorini

    Oia is a small town and former community in the South Aegean on the islands of Thira (Santorini). Oia was previously known as Apano Meria, "upper side", a name which still occurs locally as Pano Meria. Oia or la is well known for its sunsets. Unfortunately; the nights we were there; the sun sank slowly below the hoizon through a gray haze no color; no sunset.
