Nice pictures! Everytime I see the Parthenon, it looks more put together as if the restoration is improved in the last 10 years! Damn Brits won’t give back the rest of the portico. (Elgin Marbles) Ahh Porto Katsiki! I want to make time this year before I go to Naples.

u/Redavv Jul 21 '25

Ottomans used as a gunpowder storage and brits stole from it its building is restoring and preserving

2

u/AlGekGenoeg Jul 19 '25

Wasn't the original build something like 30 years 😬 without modern equipment 🤐

2

u/hopefullpesimist Jul 19 '25

It’s the same they never finished building it /s

2

u/AlGekGenoeg Jul 19 '25

If you didn't put the /s in I would have told you to read up on your history 🤣

u/Redavv Jul 21 '25

Looks like Porto Katsiki in Lefkada.

u/Cheesycatbiscuit Jul 19 '25

Porto katsiki

2

u/the_erudite_rider Jul 20 '25

Incredible - where/what area would you recommend staying in lefkada? it looks like these beaches are far from where I'm seeing the highest amount of airbnb options

2

u/honore_ballsac Jul 19 '25

Thank you for the great pics. Could you please tell us where the pics are from? I mean some are obvious, but nevertheless.

2

u/honore_ballsac Jul 19 '25

Thank you very much.

2

u/honore_ballsac Jul 19 '25

If you don't mind, I have another question? How was Poros? How does it compare to Aegina (if you stayed in Aegina)?

1

u/Cheesycatbiscuit Jul 19 '25

There was definitely more to see in Poros compared to Aegina… but I can’t talk about Aegina that much because it was just a day trip compared to my 10 day stay in Poros (my plan was to go around the Saronic Islands from there)

2

u/LokiDesigns Jul 20 '25

Parga looks incredible

2

u/Dennis_R0dman Jul 19 '25

Incredible. What was your favorite part of the trip?

1

u/Cheesycatbiscuit Jul 19 '25

The island hopping tour from Nidri was the highlight for me!

2

u/Angelface3106486 Jul 19 '25

Looks nice❣️

u/Alert_Somewhere8180 Jul 19 '25

I was just there this week! Maybe we saw each other (along with 10,000 others.....)

1

u/Cheesycatbiscuit Jul 19 '25

where exactly?? Hope u had a good time as well!

2

u/Alert_Somewhere8180 Jul 20 '25

Athens for 3 days, then crete and naxos.  Had a great time in Athens.  Crete was amazing.  Naxos.....eh.  too many children.

2

u/CauliflowerLonely799 Jul 20 '25

Loved that beach and the little side of the road food truck on the way

2

u/snarfalotzzz Jul 20 '25

I loved poros! We stayed in galatas and then water taxied back and forth, then went to hydra in addition to Athens. Just returned!

1

u/Cheesycatbiscuit Jul 21 '25

I didn’t get to visit galatas but the water ferries/taxis are so cute! Hope you had a good time as well

u/GateA23Guy Jul 22 '25

Greece looks like a dream, and you hit such a perfect mix of popular and lesser-known spots. Spetses and Parga aren’t on most people’s radar, how did you choose them?

2

u/SeaworthinessDue1380 Jul 23 '25

Awesome pictures ! Going to parga in oct so would like to hear your thoughts on it ?

2

u/Cheesycatbiscuit Jul 23 '25

I loved it! I just stayed around the beach area tho and didn’t really get to go around. I def want to come back to Parga one day

2

u/slotkalolitka Jul 23 '25

how did you survive acropolis in this hot weather? i'm struggling!!!

1

u/Cheesycatbiscuit Jul 23 '25

Trust me i was dying too!! 🤣

2

u/luxelife441 Jul 24 '25

Would love any advice for Poros. Thinking of doing a day trip from Hydra. Did you do a boat tour there or have any beach clubs to recommend?

2

u/Cheesycatbiscuit Jul 24 '25 edited Jul 25 '25

Thala...Sea Beach Bar-Restaurant

https://g.co/kgs/etToAsB

I stayed here on most of my beach days. I loved the food, people, and atmosphere

I didn’t do a boat tour but I stayed for 10 days

2

u/luxelife441 Jul 25 '25

is it close to the port? should i make reservation?

2

u/Cheesycatbiscuit Jul 25 '25

Id say it’s like a 10 minute drive from the port and I didn’t do reservations but they get busy

2

u/luxelife441 Jul 25 '25

Im going to try to make a reservation today. So I can get my ferry ticket

1

u/Cheesycatbiscuit Jul 25 '25

I hope you have a good time as well! Enjoy Poros :)
