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.
Found on the glittering ultramarine coast that kisses the north-western edge of Samos, a roughly oval-shaped island deep in the Greek stretch of the North Aegean Sea, is the charming port-town of Karlovasi. Built in a wedge between a landscape of steep hills, the town is picture-perfect in its guise as an idyllic Mediterranean community. Traditional white-walled apartment blocks rise in anarchic tiers upon slopes coloured deep-green with Mediterranean pines, while a web of narrow lanes snake idly through the suburbs. The waterfront is lined by a sweeping promenade studded with alfresco restaurants and bars and canvas stalls selling local wares. Beyond them, in the warm shallows of the Aegean Sea, yachts and sailboats bob gently on their moorings. The port in Karlovasi is found at the north-eastern edge of town. It is a small site featuring a handful of piers that jut into a section of the sea sheltered by an arcing breakwater. Incoming ferries dock along the edge of the largest pier where facilities are limited to just a check-in booth and a short stay car-park. Travelling to and from the harbour can prove difficult. The island is hewn from rugged mountains that are split by just a few “main” roads, while most of the villages, Karlovasi included, are designed around a cramped network of streets more suited to pedestrians than cars. A few public buses travel between the towns and villages found nestled in the niches between the hills. Most services travel to the synonymous capital of Samos; this quaint, bay-side town sitting at the end of the number 62 highway which curves away from the heart of Karlovasi and traces the island’s rocky northern coastline east. A number of routes currently operate from the port in Karlovasi throughout the week. Services hosted by Hellenic Seaways sail to several of the islands that speckle the Aegean Sea; including Chios, Limnos and the port-city of Mytilene on the isle of Lesbos to the north; and Mykonos, Syros and the town of Evdilos on Ikaria in the west. A couple of other routes head to the city district of Piraeus and the town of Kavala further away on the Greek mainland.
