There’s a reason Oia is world-renowned for its sunsets. Just a short walk from Amelie Canaves, you’ll find breathtaking panoramic views where the sun dips below the Aegean Sea, casting golden and pink hues across whitewashed rooftops and the caldera cliffs. People gather in hushed awe, cameras ready, but nothing compares to seeing it with your own eyes. Whether from the castle ruins, a cliffside café, or a quiet spot in the village, the sunset here is a daily celebration of beauty, romance, and the timeless magic of Santorini.

Rising dramatically from the sea near Imerovigli, Skaros Rock is one of Santorini’s most iconic landmarks. A historic fortress turned natural lookout point, this rocky promontory invites adventurous souls to hike its path and enjoy panoramic views of the caldera, neighboring islands, and the endless blue beyond. Along the way, you’ll pass a hidden chapel and feel the wind carrying ancient stories. It’s a perfect excursion for photographers, hikers, and history lovers — and the reward at the top is pure serenity. Make sure to wear good shoes and bring your sense of wonder.

Reconnect with yourself in a peaceful outdoor setting surrounded by blooming flowers, shaded corners, and the gentle sounds of nature. At Amelie Canaves, guests can join guided yoga sessions in the garden — a chance to stretch, breathe, and unwind in a serene atmosphere. Whether you're a seasoned yogi or a beginner looking for a mindful moment, this space offers the perfect balance of calm and rejuvenation. As the sun rises or sets over Finikia, find your flow under the open sky and let the island’s energy ground and inspire you.
