Fournoi is a clutch of small islands in the Ikaria region of Greece. These islands, of which only two are inhabited, sit in a pleasantly warm stretch of the Aegean Sea near to the western border of Turkey. The largest of these isles, also called Fournoi, is a narrow, snaking stretch of land shaped by a saw-toothed shoreline and an undulating inland landscape of steep, shrub-covered hills. The port of Fournoi is located in the island’s largest town of Fourni. It’s a community with a love for fine seafood. A large fleet of fishing vessels regularly leave from the town’s west-facing bay to trawl the bountiful waters of the nearby Mediterranean, hoping to quench the almost insatiable local hunger for great-tasting fish. The town itself is formed around a twisting network of lanes that lead away from beach-lined edge of the bay towards the charming whitewashed buildings that rise on tiers towards the surrounding foothills. The departure point for ferries is found at the foot of a small concrete pier near to the centre of the curved shoreline. It’s a small area with no check-in terminal or passenger amenities, though a few cafés selling hot food and drinks can be found close by. Transportation across the island is limited due to its small size and secluded location. Only one main road feeds into Fourni, a route that heads south to the hamlet of Plagia, while a single bus shuttles passengers from the port to the island’s main beaches. A number of ferries leave from the port a few times throughout the week. Dodekanisos Seaways offer a host of routes to the islands that pepper the Aegean Sea, from Samos and Ikaria (also serviced by Hellenic Seaways), a short distance to the north, as well as a Patmos, Lipsi, Leros, Kalimnos and Kos that stretch further south.
Known as one of the most famous Greek Islands, Mykonos is a very popular holiday destination in the summer months. There are many ferry routes departing from Mykonos Port, mostly fairly short crossings to other coastal resorts belonging to Greece. Famous for its luxurious beaches, scorching temperatures and, of course, the notorious party scene, Mykonos is usually inundated with young people across Europe looking for temporary tans and cheap alcohol. The beaches are rightfully popular; the golden sands next to crystal waters create an idyllic setting for a holiday in the sun, especially during the summer months. If the beaches seem popular, then the bars and clubs come nightfall will be twice as busy – for relentless partying then the strip of clubs is the place to go. Contrary to popular belief, there is more to Mykonos than the thriving nightlife and young holidaymakers: the island is filled with hidden caves and traverses that are a refreshing change from the lively atmosphere. For a middle ground between partying and a mild stroll, there are canoeing and kayaking excursions available, supervised by fully qualified instructors. Taxis are probably the best way to get around Mykonos, though the buses are a reliable and cheap alternative option. Much of the centre of the island can be covered by foot, which is a common choice considering the typically pleasant weather.
