Alonissos

The locals call it Alonisos or ‘The Old Village’ and it’s an Aegean Sea Greek island. Patitiri is the islands main port and you’ll find plenty of hydrofoil, ferry and catamaran movement here. It’s highly regarded for its impressive villages, beautiful hill-top Aegean Sea views and romantic, relaxing environment. Though pretty, this island has seen its fair share of hardship, with the 1965 earthquake damaging much of its structures, today however, it’s a beautiful mish-mash of old broken relics, and the new.

The powerful beauty keeps its local and migrant community happy. This place has a genuine feel to it and offers delightful dining featuring fresh local produce. If you ask the locals, they might say that Chora is the best place to venture to for an exquisite view. Picnics are pretty from its hilltops, so pack a nice local lunch with olives and enjoy the view. Dates, family fun and strolls are all a delight from the popular areas of Steni Vala, Patitiri and Votsi.
