The magical sunset of Santorini was ranked at the sixth place of the list of the most beautiful summer sunsets in the world, that was published by prestigious National Geographic magazine! In fact, although the Aegean island ranks sixth in the Top 10, the magazine selected a photo of the dreamy sunset of the Cycladic island as the main photo of the article.

According to the article, the sunset in Santorini is just a giant postcard. As the sun starts to slip below into the Aegean Sea, the sky all around the traditional village and castle of Oia, on the very northern tip of the island of Santorini, gives itself over from the day’s magnificent blue to crimson to…every sunset color imaginable.
And although it is a popular spot that is often crowded, once that color starts to break out, you won’t notice. It is breathtaking.

See the ten best summer sunsets in the world and enjoy them through the eyes of your imagination.
