On a cutter, around the Marine National Park

by StefanosS - last update: Jan 8, 2004

Patitiri harbour, Alonnisos island
We are leaving the harbour of Patitiri on a beautiful cutter for a guided tour in the Marine National Park.

Between Alonnisos and Peristera islands

Heading North, between the islands Alonnisos (to the left) and Peristera (to the right).

Psathoura island

Psathoura island


We arrive at Psathoura island, that is the north end of the Marine Park. Psathoura island is absolutely flat and has only bushes on it, a tall beacon to the north and a wonderful shallow sandy beach to the south. Here we are for a swim at the beach. In a small distance from the shore, under the waters, a sunken ancient city can be seen. Some archaeologists claim that this city is the ancient Alonnisos.

 Very informative, thanks. My cousin visits relatives there often (his daughter married a native), and I hope to join him one day.

 Stefanos, your Alonissos page is great. I revived my memories, having visited this beautiful corner of Greece twice in the past. I am travelling to Greece every year, but Alonissos remained in my heart at deepest. Centrope
