Thira is the exciting and breathtaking capital of Santorini, perched on the top of spectacular volcano cliffs, 900 metres above the busy Port of Skala.

Holidays in Thira are unforgettable, the city is so steep that it can only be reached from the port by foot, traditional mule or cable car - meaning there are no cars! Around 800 magnificent winding steps lead up to the town and days can be spent strolling around the maze of narrow cobbled streets and staircases.

As the capital of Santorini, visitors have a vast range of restaurants, bars, clubs and shops to choose from, all mostly based around the main staircase. Meals range from traditional Greek dishes to international cuisine, with atmospheric views available from the restaurants. Nightlife is a big part of Thira holidays, while shops and stalls are dotted all over the busy central axis of the city.

Thira’s most popular pastime is watching the incredible sunsets, while tours can also be taken of the spectacular Thirasia volcano. Santorini’s rich history can be discovered in the two museums, while amazing sandy beaches can be found in nearby Kamari and Perissa.

Bustling and traditional and in a stunning setting, holidays in Thira are second to none.
