Santorini is one of the Cyclades islands in the Aegean Sea and the iconic views from Oia village are remarkable.

Its not always possible to grab a clear view inbetwen the throng of visitors; lining up to take a selfie, however with some patientience "βιόλα".

In the distance to the right is the dormant, but active volcano. Numerous minor and medium-sized, mainly effusive, eruptions have built the dark-colored lava shields of Nea and Palea Kameni inside the caldera. Their last eruption was in 1950, and now only fumarolic activity, primarily inside the recently active craters, takes place.
