so right here i'm standing in the middle of Imerovigli and i just wanted to give you a
little orientation so this is the southern tip of santorini way out here is akrotiri and then
down here is the ferry port you'll see a number of cruise ships docked here oh they're not docked but
in here inside the caldera the cruise ships use smaller boats called tenders for their passengers
to get aboard but this is the ferry port and then up here you have fira and coming along the edge of
the caldera this is the first half of Imerovigli that you'll see and then i'm going to walk around
to the other side here to show you the head facing the direction of the other side of Imerovigli
so if you were to walk from fira you'd pass through firostefani
coming up here there's a little bit of an uphill here and then it evens out from much of Imerovigli
and then i'm going to walk around the corner and you'll be able to see
the rest of Imerovigli you'll see skaros rock and off in the distance.
there are a number of photographers in santorini who you can rent these dresses and then they will
photograph you in the scene wearing these beautiful flowing dresses when the wind
those long dresses flap in the distance quite beautifully.
so just another peek before we go around the corner here
in the beginning of Imerovigli
and skaros rock here comes into the picture
this is the st george church and we're gonna come up here and around that corner
thank you
okay
and then right here Oia comes into visibility off in the distance
rock which is a great trail to hike down to the turn off is just next to grace hotel in Imerovigli
if you're on the fira to oia hike you can do that as a side trip or you can
also just come and do it on its own for a couple of hours there's a beautiful
staircase of switchbacks here that bring you out to skaros rock on the other side there's a little
church hidden down below it's not so hidden but if you don't know it you wouldn't necessarily get
there but it's got a beautiful viewpoint on the far side not visible from here and then off in
the distance you can see uh that's the northern tip of santorini and this is thirassia island
excuse me
so grace hotel begins to come into view there and just around the corner there a little bit further
you reach the other half of the Imerovigli where there are a number of wonderful hotels
including astra and many others the athenian house restaurant is there avocado restaurant dear ellie
and many people who are if you're going to walk the Fira to Oia trail which eventually comes down
this ridge you're gonna pass through Imerovigli just around the bend here enjoy Imerovigli
you
