The harbour and landing place at Thira, Santorini Island, Greece. The photographer is looking south from the zigzag steps leading up the cliff to the town on top of the cliffs. A number of rowing boats and larger oar propelled boats are at anchor or moored inside the breakwater. A small caique is drawn up on the foreshore and more boats are on the quayside. A motor boat from the German cruise ship Milwaukee (1929) is embarking passengers from the quayside in the right foreground while another of the Milwaukee's boats is approaching the quay.
