Approaching Oia, one of the most famous summer resorts you will be fascinated by the incredible beauty that lies before your eyes. It's the first settlement in Greece considered conserved. It's located in the north part of the island and it would be a pity not seeing it. Especially at dawn to see one of the most beautiful sunsets in Greece. Oia's name is connected with sunset. Every afternoon, when the horizon is painted with the colours of fire, crowds of people "hang" in caldera to see this unique spectacle. The carved in rocks settlement, house- caves, that are excavated in rocks, are its characteristic. That kind of settlement can only be found in Santorini, due to its particular type of ground.
