Beautiful Santorini Day 7- Part II: Ammoudi Bay

We finish off Day 7 with the sunset at Ammoudi Bay- said to be the best and longest sunset on Santorini Island. As such, you have been forewarned: The longest sunset post ahead. :)

The sunset on the way down to the bay.


We finally arrived at the end of the road. Cars were parked at the side of the slope.


The gorgeous bay. Beautiful restaurants tucked into the cove.

I just love how the small boats come to berth there after a day of fishing.

We selected a comfy spot to view nature's momentous closing.

The way the sun rays reflect off the quiet sea in that vertical symmetry is just sublime.

The beautiful clear sea. You can see how deep the dive is from the cliff where we were. No shore due to the volcano explosion centuries ago.

Wish we were sailing away in that little boat to the sunset. 

The horizon keeps changing with every shot. Miraculous sights.

The different hues of sunset. Now I know how artists are always inspired to paint sunsets.




The reason for the entire surreal experience


My favourite picture- the giant fireball. *Great balls of fire!!!* :D To think this happens everyday!

The Grand Finale





After the sunset, we decided to take a walk in the little cove.

Pretty little row of boats



The tourists there were so friendly. We were just walking around and they offered to take a picture for us.


A cliffhanger end. Haha. A landslide warning sign.
