Nissi Beach

Nissi beach in Agia Napa is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Cyprus. The white sand gives a light blue color to the sea and when you are there it's seems like you are inside of a carte postale from some exotic destination.

Mirabello Bay

Mirabello Bay is the larger bay of Crete and held a strategically important role in the past. A Genoveze pirate named Pescatore built a fortress in order to observe and protect the bay. Because of the amazing view this tower was offering they called the fortress mirabello (Latin for 'it's beautiful' ) or kalithea (Greek for 'nice view'). The bay took its name from this.

Spinalónga, Lasithi, Greece

Reading about Spinalonga I'm wondering. Were the exiles able to find hope and admire that beautiful nature? Did the breath-taking view ease their suffering? Who knows? Maybe this beautiful prison was just that, a prison. I choose to believe that it was not only that

Spinalónga, Lasithi, Greece

A leper, exiled from civilization, looks at the shore where all of his loved ones continue living their lives. Freedom is just 5 minutes away with a small fishing boat, but he was condemned for ever to a life of isolation

Spinalónga, Lasithi, Greece

Spinalonga's history is not just one more tale of humanity's monstrosity, an Auschwitz for the cursed or a manifestation of society fear. It's mostly a story of hope, a story of affection between those that have no future and those that deny the social norms, but most of all it is a story of love and the desire to live and struggle for what is right. It's the story of miss Tasia's husband that never left her side and stay with her on the island, the story of miss Fani, that she couldn't left her ill husband but lived with him in the leprosy hospital and the story of Eleni, a nurse that decided to inject the blood of her leper husband into her veins as she couldn't live apart from him.

Spinalónga, Lasithi, Greece

A visit to Spinalonga can last from one hour to several, depending on how much you know about the island history. In case you read the book or watched the TV show, you probably would like to spend some time in the abandoned little houses and stroll around the alleys to get a sense of the life back in the leprosy years. Take your time to climb on the top of the islet to admire the view. Before leaving the island, take a quick swim in the warm waters where the boat left you to cool down and relax. Don't hurry, you can always take any one of the next boats to return back
