How to get from Santorini Athinios Port to Fira

Taking a taxi from Athinios Port to Fira is quick and easy, taking between 15 and 30 minutes to get there, depending on how busy the roads are. Local taxis wait at ranks next to where the ferries arrive, but the queues are often long.

Taxis don’t charge using a taximeter, instead, you’ll pay a fixed price of around €35-€40 to Fira.

A taxi from Athinios Port to Fira costs approximately €35. However, taxi prices are determined yearly, according to destination and season, so there may be some variation in price depending on when you are travelling. Additionally, the fare is subject to change if you’re travelling at night, have extra luggage and so on.

As taxis are available 24/7 and can take you directly to your final destination, they are a very convenient transfer option. However, the port can get extremely busy during the summer months and you may have to wait a long time for a taxi. Plus, some taxi drivers will try to fill up their vehicle, so you may have to share a taxi with total strangers, but still pay the full price.

To avoid dealing with the consequences of high season demand, you can always book a private transfer in advance and ensure that an empty, private vehicle is waiting for you at the port.
