The full story

Fira is Santorini’s main town on the caldera rim, with volcano views, chapels and cave houses. It combines an exposed cliffside walk with two museums for the island’s past.

From Fira, the caldera and volcanic islands are the immediate draw, but the town also gives you ways to understand what you see. Its cave houses and chapels sit along the rim, while the Archaeological Museum and Museum of Prehistoric Thera offer different windows into Santorini’s history.

  • Caldera cliffs and views towards the volcano
  • Chapels and cave houses along the town’s rim
  • The Archaeological Museum and Museum of Prehistoric Thera

Walk the rim for views, then choose a museum if you want archaeological context.

Check each museum’s current visiting information before building it into your day.
