The port city of Piraeus can be found in the Attica region of Greece along the east coast of the Saronic Gulf about 12 km south west of Athens, the Greek capital. Piraeus is the largest ferry port in Europe and one of the largest in the world when it comes to passenger transportation with services provided by every major ferry company in Greece. Approximately 20 million passengers pass through its doors each year and the port provides the main link between the Greek mainland and the Aegean islands and Crete. Piraeus proves the gateway from the Greek mainland to all of the main holiday destinations in Greece and some of the less popular ones too. Piraeus is also famous for its football team – Olympiakos who regularly feature in the UEFA Champions League.
Sigri is a small fishing village on Lesbos Island, Greece. Located near the western tip of the island, Sigri is the most remote tourist destination in Greece, known as the land that time forgot. The name of Sigri comes from the Latin word ‘secro’ which means safe harbour. Though small in size, Sigri has much to offer. The village itself is built on a peninsula of land with the sea on both sides. The Turkish Castle in the village was built in 1757 during the ottoman period in order to protect the port of Sigri. This little harbour is always filled with colourful fishing boats and even larger vessels such as cruise ship sized ferries coming from the mainland. Clustered around the harbour are some lovely summer houses and hotels connected by small cobbled and paved streets. The beautiful sandy beaches here have a striking contrast with the rockier and pebbled beaches to the east of Lesbos. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy peace and quiet, then the small haven of Sigri would be the perfect destination.
