The Cyclades<\/a> are rough and have a special sparkle under the sun \u2013 particularly their whitewashed square houses and the blue church domes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kefalonia, M<\/em>elissani Cave.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Ionian Islands<\/a> are tranquil and remind me of the South Italian Coast \u2013 I especially like the trees which hug the coastline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Greece, Sporades islands – S<\/em>kopelos<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Sporades Islands<\/a> have a unique and untouched sea life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dodecanese Islands<\/a> are a gateway to Asia Minor and combine many of the characteristics of the rest of the islands \u2013 most of all, summer never seems to end in the Dodecanese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunset over Poros.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I currently have a very busy working life and time is of the essence, so whenever I find some time to take my boat to sea, I head to Poros island<\/a>. In just 2 hours cruising from Athens<\/a>, Poros offers a protected port, excellent anchorages and a selection of wonderful restaurants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

FRESH FISH<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

My absolute favorite fish restaurant is MAISTRALI, on the very edge of the Poros<\/a> canal. This is actually an \u201couzeri\u201d serving a plethora of traditional \u201cmezes\u201d, Greek delicacies which are meant to go with ouzo:\u00a0 grilled octopus, fresh fried calamari, sea-urchin salad, small fried fish and many more surprises that Antonis, the joyful owner prepares on a daily basis. But of course, this is always depending on the fresh catches of the local fishermen that day! If you contact Antonis in advance, he can source big fresh fish (caught the same day) and grill it for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

MEAT LOVERS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For meat, I always go to Dimitris Family Bucher Shop Taverna. It is a bit hard to find, as it is situated within the maze of small narrow roads on the upper neighborhood of Poros<\/a> – it takes a brisk 5 minutes\u2019 walk to get there. The food, however, will reward every meat-lovers\u2019 appetite. Excellent, fresh and aged cuts from locally grazed beef, pork, and lamb, grilled by one of the owners’ sons! They also have a decent selection of Greek wines.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

SWEET TOOTH<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For dessert, I recommend going to Bessalas \u2013 right next to Maistrali, at the Eastern edge of the Poros Port. This is where all the locals get their sweets and this is always a great guarantee for high quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
