    Sitting on the edge

    A ride up the hillside on a mule is a must. You will find it an exhilerating experience climbing up. There are some stunning views from the top.

    I am sure the mules try to do their best to make you think they are going to throw you over the edge.

    Once you have climbed to the top you will find yourself in a traditional Greek village. There are a couple of little tavernas where you will find some magnificent local food. This is a good place to try some of the specialities at a reasonable price. You can always wash it down with a little ouzo or retsina ... but proceed with caution because you have to get back down to catch the boat!

    Claus noticed this place as we sailed into the harbour here on Thirassia (how many "s"'s in Thirasia??) and so it just had to be done after our excellent lunch at the restaurant on the top of the mule trail!

    Beer was cold, the sun hot, the bar shady and it was right next to the dock for the boat back to Thira - well that's our excuse for the 2nd and 3rd beers anyway ;)

    The main village on Thirassia is Horio or Manolas, is a pretty place with whitewashed houses, reached by a flight of 250 steps from the landing-place – or by donkey if you can’t face the steps in the heat as I did. This was quite an experience as my donkey insisted on overtaking on the corners - of the narrow steps! I didn't think there was anything special about the village - just enjoyed the view back down.

    Thirassia, off Santorini near Ia, is the largest of a chain of islets that remain from the ancient Strogili (before the volcanic activity) and the only one inhabited. The harbour of Thirassia was not very attractive - a channel was being dug during our visit. There is supposed to be a beach - but it wasn't obvious and the water didn't look nice to swim in really. better to enjoy a snack/drink in one of the many tavernas or head up to the village if only for the great views of the harbour below - see next tip.
