Santorini.

by Maurizioago - last update: Jul 13, 2008

At the beginning, Santorini was a circular island. It sank into the sea during a volcanic explosion of 3.500 years ago.

Thira is its official name.

Fira, or Thira, or Hora is the island's capital.

 I would love to visit Greece some time I do love the colours and the quietness of its sleepy streets

 Enjoyed your page, we had 3 nights late September'08 at Firostefani village. A nice walk to Thira.

 great pictures of Naxos and Santorini. Pyrgos looks very nice and maybe less travelled. And that restaurant in Phirostephani? is what we dream of on the Greek Islands. Wife wants to go next year. Thanks for sharing. N.
