Fira
is the capital (largest city) while Oia and Firostefani are 2 other
towns.
This is a brief description of these 2 places.
Firostefani, a suburb of the capital Fira (less than 1 km from the center),
offering the same stunning views of the magnificent caldera, at a slight
distance from all the action. Firostefani also has a very picturesque
square, and a beautiful church dedicated to St. Gerasimos, that is surrounded
by cypress trees. The stroll from Fira to Firostefani can be completed
in roughly 20 minutes, although it usually takes at least an hour because
of frequent pauses to enjoy the view.
Oia is on the northern tip of the island and is about 11 km from Fira,
built on a steep slope of the caldera. Oia is quieter than Fira, but
easy enough to hop a bus or grab a taxi into town to visit the capital. Its
streets are charming narrow passageways that twist their way along the
rim of the caldera, and down the slope of the cliff. There are plenty
of tourist shops, but they are of a different, more artisan, quality
than the more traditional tourist offerings of Fira, and there rare
also a number of beautiful commercial galleries.
