every corner of Greece is beautiful and unique
Greece is extremely diverse in terms of landscape and culture, which is why it is so interesting. It's a small country, but endless in fact. If you have the impression of a blue white country, then you haven't seen anything, I am afraid.

My wife Stel and i watch every new episode each morning with coffee. In between episodes we watch one of your previous episodes which were uploaded before we discovered your channel. You both have become like family to us, as we are an old couple (70's) who have been married (49) years, and were never able to conceive children. In this episode, we could feel the frustration from Carol about her passport issues of always being singled out , and then later when we saw her almost decapitated by that careless boatman we were thinking, "this is not her day." I immediately told Stel that the tide had probably risen, thus causing such a close call. Please be careful on your adventures. We love you both, for who you are, and what you do. STAY SAFE 🙏
yes! I can confirm as italian I know Kastellorizo island for the Mediterraneo movie ♥ a very nice island, so small and pictoresque
Welcome to Greece !!! 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷♥️🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
Kastellorizo has the traditional Dodecanese architecture totally different from Cyclades
Holy shit Carol that boat captain didn't even warn you what he was about to do. That boat captain is nuts 😳

I'm good not looking at a blue cave not worth my head 🙃 😒
The funny thing about Cyclades (central Aegean) islands is that in the past the houses there were not painted white cause, if they were, the pirates would locate the islanders' villages more easily and attack them. The "white houses" is a quite modern feature of Cyclades islands architecture. Probably it is a way to avoid absorbing two much sun heat. Also, it is worth noting that the population of Castellorizo in late 19th century was 10,000 people, but by 1920s about 8,000 had left the island to emigrate to Australia, mainland Greece, Egypt etc..
Прекрасное видео. Какие краски, какие виды!Просто вау! А какая красивая вода в пещерах, какие скалы 😍. Вы большие молодцы! 👍👏👏👏🇬🇷👍
You gave us a wonderful guided tour, you showed us many things from our homeland and you know very well the history of the place. We sincerely thank you
Beautiful Greece. Thanks guys for sharing. Well done.
The cave is spectacular 😍
Trop jolie la Grèce
It’s a very important island due to its geostrategic position. One of the most picturesque islands along with Symi and Xalki.
What a great little excursion Love the sea Turtle 💕 Sabrina🇫🇷🇬🇧
Mediterraneo is a wonderful movie based in the island of Kastellorizo. I watch it every August to get ready for my september Greek islands holiday trip. I always wanted to visit that island but it's remote and complicated to include in my usual trips, thank you for showing it for me!
Lovely. Greece has 6000 breathtaking and unique islands aside a breathtaking mainland. The couple in the video also only just visited less than 0.01% of the total islands they visited and likely they know nothing of the Greek mainland. Hence I love all the "you dont know this or that Greek island." Greece is absolutely stunning. Too bad so many people miss out on 99% of Greeces many wonderful islands and even more so the mainland, full with 80% vast mountains and spectacular scenery. And Greece has many many architectural styles. Even on the Cycladic islands there are not just white houses with blue domes. It differs everywhere. For example Syros is the capital of the Cycladic islands and are very pompous in architecture. And dodecanese has many different styles architectures. And its different on many other island groups or on the mainland, differing in many regions. Try to travel a bit more across Greece. just visiting Mykonos, Paros and Santorini means truly nothing when you know all of Greece's diversity

There are alot of non blue and white places in Greece, for instance Parga in the mainland of Greece, Corfu and Symi, Evia Island just to name a few.

Yes this video really reminded me of Paxos.
Actually the ruins of a fortress are located at a different place on the island. The place you were visiting was not a castle but a Lycian tomb later included in the defense structures of the island capital. The military ships in the habour are an indication for the ongoing conflict between Greece and Turkey, especially regarding the border in this area
That was a smooth transition into the cave, oufffff! 😰 @20:32 what a neat little resort on that island 🏝
Very ammmazing and peacefull Greece. Things you have to know about the border control between the europian union and Turkey the recent time because of the refugees, thats why it took too long time, but i understand your feel😊

Turkish minrotiy was a tiny one and were grecophone. Which simply means islamized greeks. They had never exceeded 100 people, propably less than 20 with some Turkish officials who were sent form mainland. Cyclades never had any muslim minority. BTW. Greece is more diverse than you may think of. Even in cyclades. Syros for example differs from Paros or Santorini. Island of Crete it's completely different. Even its cities. Ionians Island, west of mainland, like Corfu or kefalonia are 180 degrees different than aegean islands. And then we have the mainland, Epirus (Ioannina) with its rainy weather and buildings made by rock its like other country compared to southern Peloponnese in Mani or Monevasia. Byzantine influenced Thessaloniki differs from Thessalia, even though both names sounds similar.

I think he had to speed up to go in at a certain angle on the wave but he either timed it completely wrong or the sea was just too high, not sure. He should have told carol to lie down though beforehand.
Great Island
Hi my dad was from there! Have visited stayed 4 days enough to see the island! Did love having dinner at night by the sea in the moonlight! It was once a great port and busy with over 8,000 inhabitants until they built the Suez canal! Many people left the Island beginning of 20th century leaving their homes behind and starting a new life in USA or Australia, France or Brazil!
Wonderful video! I appreciate the explanations of what we are seeing! Looks like a beautiful place to live,except for the dead goat. I loved seeing the turtle.The cave entrance was really low! It was beautiful but a little claustrophobic! Love from Vermont
Well done for a 5 hour visit. We were there for three days and saw basically the same.

Thank you for your support to Greek tourism. Enjoy yourselves. It is a small country but Greece has contributed anything and everything that you can think of as far as advanced ancient civilization, the birth place of “Democracy”, Mythology, history, ancient artifacts and of course the birthplace of the Olympic Games. Please excuse the security detail, there are groups of idiots starting fires and trying to cause upset and turn every year. I’m pretty sure I know what country they come from but we have to try to remain politically correct. Hope you enjoyed yourselves and please come again, there is a lot to see and take in. 👍🇬🇷🇨🇾🇨🇾
A nice silent smal place, nice to see
It also has the unique Megisti Puzzle Museum! 🙂

Hiya, I am a few videos behind. School holidays here. Having a binge-watch now. Shame Carol has to deal with that. About her passport. Beautiful drone footage. Lovely island. Gorgeous views from the castle. A beautiful spot for lunch. Wow. The turtle. How cool. Lovely private, boat tour. That was scary, and lucky Carol had the space to move down. Makes sense not so much weight in the boat. How beautiful the cave is inside. Great video. Perfect tunes. Thank you for the lovely tour around. I have never heard of the island either.

Been loving the recent Greek and Turkish videos. Have been to Olu Deniz before and live the place and had always wanted to do the paragliding. Maybe next time. We have just recently done a series of videos in Zante on our channel. Beautiful island, love Greece.
Imagine traveling for months with your amazing boyfriend creating so many memories and then out of nowhere you hit your head at the entrance of a cave and forget everything...
I love the Dodecanese. Enjoy!
Since you're into religious places, the Dodecanese islands offer the Monastery and Holy Cave of St John on Patmos, and the Monastery of St Michael Panormitis on Symi, both major pilgrimage sites in the region.

Interesting, thanks. My GF and I travelled along the Turkish coast way back in 1987 and staying in Kas for a couple of days were wondering what Kastellorizo was like, as we could see it in the distance. I don't think you could get there by ferry back then.
