Sitia can be found on the east side of the Geek island Crete. With a population of around 9000, Sitia is a pretty town with a very pleasant sea front lined with cafés and tavernas. It is not really built for tourists even though you will see plenty of them around.
Thira is the official name of the island of Santorini, Greece and is located in the southern Aegean Sea, about 200 km southeast of mainland Greece. Thira is essentially what remained after an enormous volcanic explosion that destroyed the earliest settlements on a formerly single island, and created the current geological caldera. With its dramatic views, stunning sunsets and beautiful beaches, it is no surprise that Thira is hugely popular with holidaymakers.
