About Fira
Fira, the main community on Santorini, is fairly easy to get around on foot, as it's mostly concentrated just below the rim of the highest point of the main cliff, about 300 metres above the sea. Of course, the most spectacular part of Fira is centered around the view, and that is where the poshest shops, bars and restaurants are concentrated. Just ten minutes' stroll on the main path brings you to the terminus of the cable car that carries you down to the Old Port below. It's either that or ride a donkey, as walking up and down is only for the very athletic. That said, though, the path carries on northwards, beyond the limits of Fira, always with the view of the Caldera -- or volcano crater -- on the left. It rounds the spurs of the mountain at Imerovigli, carrying on to Oia, which an intrepid hiker can get to in about two hours. On a stroll through Fira, there's something interesting around every corner, which you will see in more activities videos. https://youtu.be/CGyI1nWY3fI
