Mesmerizing Greece Because the Endless Blue just can’t be experienced any other Top Itinerary Options Powered by Endless Blue © by Powered While Greece has a multitude of itinerary options, its most popular are the islands that are found in the region called the Cyclades with islands such as Mykonos, Paros, Naxos and of course the world famous Santorini. Second most popular island cluster is the Argo Saronic known for its calm waters, protected coves and traditionally Greek Islands. Some of the islands and coast that are part of this itinerary are the islands of Hydra, location to many Hollywood movies and its donkey only transportation - no cars allowed. The island of Spetses famous for its architecture and pristinely kept island. And of course the Peloponnesus Coast where one can visit the world famous Epidavros the birthplace of theatre. Another popular option with Captains is the combination of these two distinctly different regions giving you the perfect balance of iconic white washed houses with blue shutters combined with majestic stone architecture.

  • Chronological Constraints of Pyroclastic Deposits on Anafi Island

    15th International Congress of the Geological Society of Greece Athens, 22-24 May, 2019 | Harokopio University of Athens, Greece Bulletin of the Geological Society of Greece, Sp. Pub. 7 Ext. Abs. GSG2019-160 Chronological constraints of pyroclastic deposits on Anafi Island, (Cyclades, Greece): Are they Minoan? Katerina Theodorakopoulou1, Konstantinos Kyriakopoulos1, Kostas Stamoulis2, Magali Rizza3, Roberto Sulpizio4, M. Cihat Alçiçek4, Constantin D. Athanassas6 1 Department of Geology and Geoenvironment, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece, [email protected] 2 University of Ioannina-Archaeometry Center, Greece 3 Centre Européen de Recherche et d’Enseignement des Géosciences de l’Environnement, Aix-en-Provence, France 4 Department of Earth and Geo-environmental Sciences, University of Bari Aldo Moro, Italy, 5 Department of Geology, Pamukkale University, Denizli, Turkey 6 Department of Geological Sciences, School of Mining and Metallurgical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Greece This study attempts to clarify whether formerly-documented pyroclastic deposits (Keller et al. 2014, McCoy and Dunn, 2002) belong to the Minoan eruption of Santorini or an earlier event. The ‘Minoan’ eruption, occurred in the 17th century BCE (1627–1600 BCE, Friedrich et al., 2006) and had widespread impacts on the civilization of the Aegean an Eastern Mediterranean (Marinatos, 1939). Anafi Island could be a key site for the dispersal of Minoan tephra as it is the most nearby island of Santorini. Despite its proximity, only a few spots with pyroclastic deposits have been found on the island (Keller et al. 2014, McCoy and Dunn, 2002). The occurrence of tephra layers of the Minoan eruption on Rhodes, Kos and western Turkey (Keller, 1980; Eastwood et al., 1999), suggests that Anafi must have covered by Minoan tephra, which was probably eroded and swept away afterwards (Keller et al., 2014).

Within the sprawling city of Athens it is easy to imagine the golden age of Greece when Pericles had the Parthenon (the most eminent monument of the ancient Greek architecture) built. Athens is built around the Acropolis and the pinnacled crag of Mt. Lycabettus, which the goddess Athena was said to have dropped from the heavens as a bulwark to defend the city. Te suburbs have covered the barren plain in all directions and the city is packed with lively taverns and bustling shops. Cyclades - Greece 5 Kea An exceptionally picturesque island. On the south side of Nikolaos Bay - which was a pirate stronghold in the 13th c. - is the little port of Korissia, built on the side of ancient Korissia. Tere are remains of the ancient town walls and a Sanctuary of Apollo. Te famous lion - carved from the native rock in the 6th c. BCE - can be seen just north-east of Kea town. Another highlight is the beautiful anchorage of Poleis.

    CYCLADES 1 WEEK Dazzling White Villages, Golden Beaches and Clear Azure Water Are Just the Start of What These Islands Have to Offer

    Hermes Yachting P.C. 92-94 Kolokotroni str., 18535 Piraeus, Greece Tax No. EL801434127 Tel. +30 210 4110094 E-mail: [email protected] Web: www.hermesyachting.com CYCLADES 1 WEEK Dazzling white villages, golden beaches and clear azure water are just the start of what these islands have to offer. Within easy reach of Athens, these are the Aegean’s most precious gems. Ancient Greek geographers gave this unique cluster of islands the name Cyclades because they saw that they formed a circle (kyklos) of sorts around the sacred island of Delos. According to myth, the islands were the debris that remained after a battle between giants. In reality, they resulted from colossal geological events like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Their colours are blue and white like the Greek flag. The islands come in all sizes and, though the ingredients are the same – incomparable light, translucent water, heavenly beaches, lustrous white buildings and bare rock, each one has its own distinct character. The group’s stars, Mykonos and Santorini, need no introduction but the lesser-known islands, big and small, are just as rewarding. For starters, try aristocratic Syros, cosmopolitan Paros, the sculptors’ paradise of Tinos, bountiful Naxos, exotic Milos and historic Delos, not to mention the ‘hidden gems’ that adorn the Aegean, such as Tzia/Kea, Kythnos, Sifnos, Serifos, Amorgos, Sikinos, Anafi and Folegandros. Whether you’re travelling with your family, friends or sweetheart, you’re bound to find your summer paradise in the sun in the Cyclades. Beaches of indescribable beauty in the Cyclades What’s your idea of the perfect beach? Green-blue water and white sand? Beach bars and water sports? Framed by rocks for snorkelling and scuba diving? Is a secret Aegean cove accessible only on foot or by boat? No matter what your ideal is, you’ll find it in the Cyclades.

Papakonstantinidis. https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Leonidas_Papakonstantinidis https://researchleap.com/wp- content/uploads/2018/02/04_A_Social_Welfare_Economics_Proposal.edited.pdf Interviewer: Stephen I. Ternyik, Techno-Logos, Inc. (-1985) https://www.sociostudies.org/authors/ternyik_stephen_i/ Sudden mind changes seem to happen by a rapid transformation of the heart beat frequency. Such a deep psychological moment happened to you, when you visited Donousa island in 1979. You came as developmental and academic bureaucrat from the capital (Athens) and you were a bit over 30 years. What did strike you, the young careerist, so much, in that geo-meta-physical location? Yes, I came as a developmental and academic bureaucrat (Agricultural Bank of Greece, Direction of Studies and Planning) from the capital Athens to report on the small Cyclades-Aegean islands, and I started from Donousa. My turning point in the mind was a scene with the mute coachman driving the mule, as opposed to the limousine, which took us from Brussels airport to the building of the European Commission, called the Berlaymont. This was the period (1976-1979) of Greece’s accession to the EEC (now EU). The population of Donousa was fully isolated from what is called ‘quality of life’ or standard of living. I had no idea on how these people faced their day-to- day problems, especially those related to health. No electricity, no water, no infrastructure, no roads, no official port; it was a boat that brought guests to the island. It then literally clicked in me, and I refused my predetermined career, while all other bank direction members (27) became high profile academics or politicians.

    Evolution of the Serifos Metamorphic Core Complex

    Journal of the Virtual Explorer, 2007 Volume 27 Paper 2 http://virtualexplorer.com.au/ Evolution of the Serifos Metamorphic Core Complex Bernhard Grasemann Department of Geodynamics and Sedimentology, University of Vienna, Austria ([email protected]) K. Petrakakis Department of Geodynamics and Sedimentology, University of Vienna, Austria Keywords: Aegean, Cyclades, Serifos, metamorphic core complex, plutonism, low-angle normal fault, high-angle normal fault Evolution of the Serifos Metamorphic Core Complex Page 1 Journal of the Virtual Explorer, 2007 Volume 27 Paper 2 http://virtualexplorer.com.au/ Abstract: Serifos is located in the Aegean Sea, 100 km southeast of Athens and belongs to the Cycladic Islands. Geologically, Serifos belongs to the Attic-Cycladic massif and the island is largely dominated by a Late Miocene shallow-level I-type granodiorite pluton in the central and SE portion of the island. The pluton intruded into mylonitized orthogneisses, amphibolites, schists, calc-silicates, marbles and marble meta-conglom- erates. Because the host-rocks near the largely undeformed granodiorite pluton contain weakly deformed Ca-Fe-Mg high-temperature skarns, Fe-ores and extensive hydrother- mal alteration, the intrusion has been generally considered to be post-tectonic. Although the granodiorite intrusion clearly crosscuts the regional metamorphic fabric, the uppermost structural levels of the granodiorite, together with its host-rocks, are strongly overprinted by networks of greenschist-facies to cataclastic shear zones that record a notably consistent stretching lineation direction, associated with non-coaxial SSW-directed shear. The immediate host-rocks near the intrusion are mainly mylonitic orthogneisses and amphibolites that were highly deformed at temperatures > 450 °C.

Each of them has something special to offer, and apart from the most popular such as Santorini, Mykonos and Crete there are a number of other islands which are less touristy, yet extremely beautiful and worth visiting. This trip takes you to islands ideal for those who don’t like tourist-packed places and who are feeling adventurous and want to discover destinations off the beaten path. It starts in Athens, and after visiting the Acropolis and the new Acropolis museum, we will hop on our ferry to Andros. It is the second-largest island of the Cyclades, with a long and proud seafaring tradition and a walker’s paradise. Its wild mountains are traversed by fertile valleys with bubbling streams and ancient stone mills. After spending three nights in Andros take the ferry to Tinos, a wonderland of natural beauty, dotted with more than forty marble-ornamented villages found in hidden bays, on terraced hillsides and atop misty mountains. For the last part of the trip spend a day in Syros, exploring Ermoupolis, the leading commercial and industrial center of Cyclades, as well as its main port, since it was founded in the 1820s.

    Quiet revolution It may not be as scene-y as Santorini or – mercifully – as mobbed as Mykonos, but for a remote hideaway just an hour from Athens, secluded Kea is the old-world isle with it all. Still, with development on the horizon, can it keep its calm? Words by Rachel Howard Photography by Manos Chatzikonstantis JULY 2019 / ATLAS BY ETIHAD 71 ack in the 1980s, there were plenty of Greek islands where you could go completely off-grid. And you didn’t have to travel 12 hours on a ferry Bboat from Athens to reach them. I’ve lived in Greece on and off since I was six. I remember, on the Friday after- noons of my youth, I’d jump on the back of my friend Oliver’s motorbike and off we’d go to the scrappy port of Lavrion for the one-hour ferry to Kea, the closest of the Cyclades Islands to Attica. Oliver’s mother had rented a tiny farmhouse on the sage-scented slopes of a valley. Built of solid rock, the low-slung house was only accessible by a prickly footpath. The walls were as thick as the trunks of the ancient oak trees that shaded the terrace. There was no electricity; we cooked in a wood-fired oven outside, played cards by paraffin lamp and fell into a dreamless sleep in the womb of the cool stone walls, which sloped inwards until they almost met above our bed.

Its shape is triangular and its land is mostly rocky. This island, because of its size, hasn't been too much developed in tourism so it is a great destination for peace and quiet seekers. According to the myth, Anafi rose from the sea to provide shelter for the Argonatus and to protect them from the wild sea. It has got a semi-mountainous structure with Vigla, Kalamos and Agios Ioannis Theologos being their highest peaks. Anafi has many beaches, most of them with fine soft sand and some others pebbled. The port of Agios Nikolaos is the busiest part of Anafi.
