Spetses (Modern Greek: Σπέτσες, Katharevousa: Σπέτσαι, Spetsai, Ancient: Πιτυούσσα, "Pityoussa") is an affluent island and a municipality in the Islands regional unit, Attica, Greece.[2] It is sometimes included as one of the Saronic Islands. Until 1948, it was part of the old prefecture of Argolidocorinthia, which is now split into Argolis and Corinthia. In ancient times, it was known as Pityoussa, and later as Petses.

The island is now an independent municipality (pop. 4,027), with no internal boundaries within the municipality. The town of Spetses (pop. 4,001 in 2011) is the only large settlement on the island. The other settlements on the island are Moní Agíon Pánton (pop. 0), Ligonéri (4), Ágioi Anárgyroi (18), Kouzoúnos (4). Also part of the Municipality of Spetses are the islands of Spetsopoula, Falkonera, and Velopoula (all uninhabited). The municipality has an area of 27.121 km2.[3]

Α quick walk in the picturesque village of the spetses and then to the beach  Agious Anargirous where we will discover the  Bekiris Cave.


 An unusual aspect of Spetses is the absence of private automobiles in the town limits. The most common modes of transport are walking, horse-drawn carriages, bicycles, mopeds, and motorcycles. Only taxis and delivery vehicles are allowed in the downtown area. Ferries and high-speed hydrofoils arrive regularly from Piraeus. Trails encircle the island and total about 25 to 30 km. Beaches closest to the town of Spetses include: Agios Mamas in the center of town; and Kaíki (previously College) beach 1 kilometre (0.6 miles) to the northwest and Agia Marina 2 kilometres (1 mile) to the south, both of which offer water-sports. Public buses serve beaches furthear outside town, including Zogeria, Agioi Anargiroi, and Agia Paraskevi.

Bekiris Cave

Bekiri's Cave on the west of the island, a stone's throw from Agioi Anargyri beach, is one of the major attractions on Spetses. You can reach it by road or sea. However, you should know that neither way is easy. If you come by road, follow the path which starts with cement steps from the new pier on the north side of the beach, pass through the pine forest until you come to the new concrete steps that descend to the entrance. A recent landslide has made access to the cave difficult without blocking the entrance, though. If you come by sea, you have to enter the cave by swimming because of its low ceiling. You can easily see the entrance as there is a red indicator. Once in the cave, the sight is rewarding! There are stalagmites, a small sandy beach and clear blue waters. There are several folk stories which over time relating to the name of the cave. One of the most relevant suggests that Bekiris, who was chased by the Turks and and hid there until he was found and killed, lived there. Another says many women and children saved from the Kasteli massacre during the 1770s sought refuge there. However, one Spetses resident called Bekris gave them up to the TurkoAlbanians. According to tradition, the Greeks stopped coming out of the cave when the sea was stained crimson from the blood of slain siblings.

 See you soon !!

Τhe time has come for the first summer excursion. Our destination is the island of  Αndros  next to Athens just an hour and forty-five minutes from the port of Rafina .

Andros (Greek: Άνδρος,)  is the northernmost island of the Greek Cyclades archipelago, about 10 km (6 mi) southeast of Euboea, and about 3 km (2 mi) north of Tinos. It is nearly 40 km (25 mi) long, and its greatest breadth is 16 km (10 mi). It is for the most part mountainous, with many fruitful and well-watered valleys.[1] The municipality, which includes the island Andros and several small, uninhabited islands, has an area of 380 km2 (146.719 sq mi).[2] The largest towns are Andros (town), Gavrio, Batsi, and Ormos Korthiou.

The island is famous for its Sariza spring at Apoikia, where the water flows from a sculpted stone lion's head. Palaeopolis, the ancient capital, was built into a steep hillside, and the breakwater of its harbor can still be seen underwater. Andros also offers great hiking options

 Living close to nature our aim is to discover small treasures of the island . We choose to stay for two nights in a camp located in Gavrio the port of the island Andros Camping.


Τhe route to the city of the island is fantastic of course the best time to take the route is in the sunset where the sun will disappear deep into the Aegean Sea . . .


The island is famous for its beaches with crystal clear waters. Unfortunately, we were unable to explore all the beaches of the island. But we chose the best ones based on the weather conditions prevailing on the island these days.
Access to the famous beaches is easy. but in the northern part of the island  the road was cramped. I suggest jeep or enduro motobike not scooter !!

Tis Grias to Pidima Beach


  
Zorkos Beach

Next stop Sounio Attica
Lets find the Cape Legrena Beach
 

Legrena Beach   (KAPE BEACH)



Then we will pass from the temple of the Poseidon a place that every visitor must visit . Τhe location of the temple is unbelievable and all around it springs an unexplained energy probably fired from the past

Tample of Poseidon 

The Athenians, by building the Parthenon, honored Athena as one of the two contenders of the city's name. In Sounio they dedicated the temple to the second contender, Poseidon. Maybr there wasn't better place than this. A sixty meter rock above the sea, at the southernmost point of the city. From there, those who leave by boat from Athens spend the last time or the spot you meet first when approaching. The location of Sounio is related to the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur and how the sea that spreads in front of the tip has the name we all know Aegean Sea. The place has unbelievable beauty and harmoniously combines the triptych of sun-sea-history that fits so well into this corner of the world.





Αt sunset, a beautiful day had passed full of memories and being..
