– Agios Ioannis beach – 2nd most beautiful of the world
Mini-Description
Our trip starts from the port of Hora Sfakion. 10 people on board and a speed boat that ensures we reach Gavdos island within an hour. Our first stop is Potamos beach, sandy with amazing canyons on the background. Next, we travel along the rugged southwest coastline, admiring the rock formations carved by the elements up to the southernmost point of Europe. Τhere is a giant chair advises us to “Relax and Smile!” and so we do, then making our way to Karave port, taking our mini bus to Korfos for a wonderful lunch with magnificent views. Last stop Agios Ioannis beach, voted as second most beautiful of the world by Travel Channel in 2007. A sandy beach with sand dunes and cedar trees, which offer shade for hippies staying there for a couple of weeks or even months! An unforgettable experience, a trip back to the 60s and 70s, when naturism was the way of life.

The trip was well worth the cost. A fast boat took us to the first beach, Potamos. A sandy beach with many colours in the rocks, one of which is clay which when mixed with sea water can be rubbed on… On to the second beach Tripiti with the chair marking the most southerly part of Europe. Then on to the port and a transfer to the taverna for a large lunch after which a trip back to the boat and to the third beach. Long, shallow with soft sand and a glimpse of a hippie lifestyle: Great day.

Estata una giornata bellissima, oltre che una esperienza unica. Abbiamo, per la prima volta nella nostra vita, vissuto una situazione selvaggia; la 1 spiaggia, Potamos, meravigliosa. Abbiamo visto spiagge e scorci da togliere il fiato. Speriamo in futuro di rivivere un esperienza altrettanto bella ed emozionante.

Avontuur naar Gavdos/ In je blootje in een bootje
Na twee jaar wachten eindelijk de excursie, maar het geld was dit waard. Per speedboat met 10 personen. Diverse nationaliteiten waren aan boord van de boot. Maar de schoenen moesten uit. Drie stranden werden bezocht.
1. Potamos 2. Tripiti 3. Agios Ioannis
Het laatste strand was beslist het mooiste met prachtige doorkijkjes. Bij strand 2 konden we de stoel bewonderen en werden ruggen ingesmeerd en bij Potamos de buiken met heilzame modder. De kapitein een zware jongen hielp de oudjes. Beslist meenemen de camera een plastic zak, badschoenen en zonnebrandolie.
De trip is geschikt voor ieder die kan zwemmen en “niet te oud” is.
