Firostefani Central Square, Santorini
Firostefani's "main square" is nothing like a real town square, but just a small area in the quaint neighborhood right next to the main road. For those who wish to get a quick bite to eat, it offers a nice variety of eateries. In most cases, the local cafés and restaurants carry a great selection of wines and other beverages, not to mention the delicious local cuisine.
Also, Firostefani Square is situated near the Old Port of Fira, and close to Skala, which makes it an ideal vantage point for a breathtaking view of the caldera cliff side.
