Ammoudi

The vibrant Amoudi Bay with boats docked in the crystal clear water at the port of Oia in Santorini during summer.

This tiny port of colorful fishing boats lies 300 steps below Oia. It’s a steep haul down and up again but well worth it for the views of the blood-red cliffs, the harbor and back up at Oia. Once you’re down there, have lunch at one of the excellent, if pricey, fish tavernas right on the water’s edge.

In summer, boats and tours go from Ammoudi to Thirasia daily; check with travel agencies in Fira for departure times.
