By the shores of the Ionian

By the shores of the Ionian

On the way to Limionas as you leave Mylopotamos the rugged coastline presents an incredible vista - a reminder of the hauntingly beautiful words of the famous Greek poet, Kostis Palamas, in his poem "Song of the Seven Islands":

"In a circumference of blue the seven islands
Foam chiselled, rise, dissolve,
Join hands and dance upon the waves."
