Elia Color


80°F/27°c

This is a lovely long sandy beach on the
south coast of Mykonos,
some 13 kilometers
from the island's main town.
There are plenty
of tavernas to have a cool drink
and a bite to
eat after swimming.
If you just want to relax
in the sun and soak the rays,
you can do that
tooas there are umbrellas and sun lounges
and there are
not as many people as at some
of the other beaches on the isle of Mykonos.
If water sports such as water skiing,
para-gliding,windsurfing
or sailing is what you like,

Elia Beach is the
perfect place to head to!

The Color of Hydra

80°F/27°c

Hydra Ύδρα, is one of the Saronic Islands located in the Aegean Sea. It is separated from the Peloponnese by narrow strip of water. In ancient times, the island was known as Hydrea Υδρέα, which is derived from the Greek word for "water", which was a reference to the springs on the island.

There is one main town, known simply as "Hydra port" with a population of 2,526, consists of a crescent-shaped harbor, in which restaurants, shops, markets, and galleries that cater to tourists and locals are centered. Steep stone streets lead up and outwards from the harbor area. Most of the local residences, as well as the pensions are located on these streets.

Agios Nikolaos Color




75°F/24°c

Agios Nikolaos Άγιος Νικόλαος is a seaside town on the
Greek island of Crete, lying east of Heraklio.
In the year 2000, the municipality of Agios Nikolaos,
which takes in part of the surrounding villages
had a population of 19,000 inhabitants.
The town is the capital of the prefecture of Lasithi.
It has an area of 317 square kilometers ore 123 square miles.

Agios Nikolaos was settled in the late Bronze Age
by Dorian occupants of Lato,
at a time when the security of the Lato hill fort
became a lesser concern and access to the harbor
at Agios Nikolaos became sufficiently attractive.


The name Agios Nikolaos means Saint Nicholas,
and its stress lies on the second syllable of the word "Nikolaos".
Agios Nikolaos is a common place-name in Greece
Cyprus, since Saint Nicholas is the patron saint
of sailors and of all of Greece.

Walking the concourses below the streets of bustling
Athens leading to the Metro platforms,
one is in awe with the glorious past of
