Sailing excursion to Spinalonga and Kolokitha Islands
The experience:
Experience a fascinating and poignant day as you sail to the beautiful island of Spinalonga, often called the 「island of tears」 due to its past as a leper colony. For over fifty years it was home to hundreds of lepers who were forbidden to leave yet attempted to live normal lives. Explore the shops, hospital and graveyard before sailing to Kolokitha Island to moor at an idyllic beach. Relax, swim or snorkel whilst the crew prepares a delicious barbecue lunch and drinks.
