Exploring the Magic - A visit to Ikaria



Not far away, west from Samos, 1,5 to 2 hours with a ferry, there is Ikaria island. Since many years I had been reading articles and watching videos about Ikaria, and in this year I finally made it to visit this island.
In part my visit to Ikaria was triggered too by a new (2015) fast ferry connection from Pythagorio to Agios Kirykos: the catamaran ferry "Dodekanisos Pride" makes one stop-over in Fourni and after 1,5 hours reaches Ikaria island!

What I found there I liked so much that I came back again a couple of weeks later! Here are a few photos as "teaser".


















My impressions from the visits to Ikaria I have condensed into a video and a photo slideshow.
If you are planning a visit to the islands of Samos or Patmos, don't miss the chance to pay a visit to Ikaria too!

Visits to Posidonio



Here is a video with a short compilation of clips that I took in recent years when I was visiting lovely Posidonio in the southeast of the island. Hope you will enjoy it!
What is always nice: the so-called "sunset-trip" in the boat of Captain Jiannis from Pythagorion through the Mykale Strait to the fish tavern in Posidonio.



The triangular rock is called "Samsons Rock"!

Out of my head

Here is a lovely version of the song "Out of my head" - written by singer/songwriter Kieran Goss from Ireland - sung by Dimos Kasapidis. We recorded this song in beautiful May 2014 in this picturesque green spot called Pnaka (with a phantastic tavern and fresh waters from a well) high above the north coast of the island.
