Oia, Santorini, is difficult to get to, but it is one of the most beautiful places on earth. IMG_4846After five hours on a ferry and more than an hour on a bus through winding mountain roads that looked more suitable for a donkey, we finally arrived in the city. After a quick lunch, we headed straight to the beach.Although the beach was extremely rocky, the water was clean and the perfect temperature. The waves made a sound like firecrackers as they washed more rocks across the already rocky beach.
Boats went by in the distance and painted white stripes through the royal blue water, perfectly matching the Greek flag. After swimming for a bit, I tried to sit on a giant rock like Ariel, but the waves soon washed me off. I cut my knees, broke my flip flops, and I have several bruises, but it was worth it.
We went to a fancy rooftop restaurant to watch the incredible sunset, where I had bread with basil, olive oil, and tomatoes, amazing spicy spaghetti with sausage and peppers, a pina colada, Moscato that was just as good as the Moscato in Manarola, and baklava for dessert.
