A LITTLE FISHY
At first you may be a little perplexed to see weary shoppers with their feet in
ground-level aquariums. Fish spas have become all the rage on Santorini. Look
closely and you'll see hundreds of tiny garra rufa fish crowded around the clients'
feet, looking like they're nibbling away. Exactly: these toothless critters suck away
at your dry skin to stimulate blood flow. Test it out by dipping your feet for 10
minutes for around €10 or dive in for a full-body, hour-long plunge for around €70.
Information
Fira doesn't have an EOT (Greek National Tourist Organisation) or tourist police.
Toilets are north of Plateia Theotokopoulou near the port police building. You may
need to brace yourself (they're of squat vintage). Bring your own paper.
