Sunset at the Lighthouse

After the crazy experience of the white-beach hunt, we finally get back to a normal road (which suddenly feels like a luxury experience) and reach the South Western end of the island in no time. This side of Santorini ends with a sort of rocky promontory with magnificent views of the rest of the caldera. But the real landmark is a lighthouse perched on the cliff and facing the open sea.

We climb on the hilly side of the promontory and sit on a rock while waiting for the sun to dive into the waters.

Again another day with a slow start, but a great ending!Read more
