Oia - A pleasant town to stay

by jinwenwang - last update: Jul 7, 2003

Oia (june20-21)

easy walking...
9:00am morning arrival in Santorini:
Following Joaquin (SirRichard)'s tip, we took bus to Oia directly upon arrival in Santorini. On the bus, we met a local girl from Oia who just brought her friends back home...she was just so nice to almost bring us to the Oia Youth Hostel.

10:00am first impression:
Oia is such a pleasant town that you can easily spend days there...right after check-in, we went to take the boat trip (leave 10:15am everyday) to Thirasia and Volcano islands.

Oia streets

Oia streets are much nicer than those of Thira. More natural, more turnings, more suprises and more small streets...less shops than Thira.

Kamari Beach & Red Beach

After visiting the excavation town near Red Beach, we went to the famous Kamari beach for lunch...
