Fira is the capital of the island and the most important village and is located on the west part of the island of Santorini Greece, 10km away from the Port of Athinios.
Fira is perched on the edge of a 260 meter cliff and offers a fantastic panorama on the volcano.
The earthquakes of 1956 destroyed a part of the town but hopefully, some of the18th century houses are still standing.
