One way bus ticket from Oia to Fira and vice versa cost Euro 2/person and runs on a schedule that you can check online. For us, since we were there in peak season, the bus runs every 30 minutes. You will pay the person at the bus station and he will have change and also print you the receipt.
If you are taking the bus from Oia to Fira and wants to see the Aegean Sea, then you should sit on the left side of the bus behind the driver.
If you are taking the bus from Fira to Oia and wants to see the Aegean Sea, then sit on the right side of the bus opposite of the driver.
For sunset in Oia, there are so many people and hard to see unless you go early and wait but it’s very hot while we were there even though weather forecast was only 75F but it felt like 80s, not sure why? So I actually went to see the sunrise instead and only a few people were there with me. I didn’t even have to arrive too early to get a good spot at the 3 blue domes in Oia.
To get a good picture of the 3 blue domes in Oia, walk straight towards Amoudi Bay and once you past the church on the right and see the first blue dome, turn left to the small alley. This is where I saw the beautiful sunrise and took the picture with the 3 blue domes.
Another place to take the picture which seem more popular is the second left after the blue dome and I had to queue up for a short time even though it was only 7am. The earlier spot had no line at all and I love the spot better.
After taking the picture early, we continued walking towards the North and was at the most Northern side of the Island and saw some pretty windmills.
Sun sets around 8:20pm.
