Sights
Pyrgos village
A hilltop village of lanes winding up to the ruins of a Venetian castle, with views across the whole island.
Boat & day trips
Nea Kameni volcano
Boat trips from Fira's old port land you on the young volcanic island in the caldera for a walk up to the craters; some add the warm springs at Palea Kameni. Because boats leave from the old port, there is no cable car climb.
