Symi Spring Colours

The Blue Star Diagoras coming into Yialos on Wednesday morning. The bunting is up for the VE Day parade on Sunday.

A couple of flotillas came through Symi this week.  This was the scene in Yialos on Friday morning as they pulled out for a day's sailing.

Visitors head round to the clock tower to catch the Friday morning Blue Star.  As you can see, the traffic cones are starting to show some wear and tear.

Suddenly the view through the gap on the Kali Strata has got a lot busier.

About this Blog

I sailed into Panormitis Bay, Symi, by chance one windy July day in 1993 and have been here ever since. The locals tell me that this is one of the miracles of St Michael of Panormitis. A BA graduate with majors in English, Philosophy and Classical Civilisation, the idea of living in what is to all intents and purposes an archaeological site appeals to me. Not as small as Kastellorizo, not as touristy as Rhodes, Symi is just the right size. I live on a small holding which my husband and I have reclaimed from a ruin of over-grazing and neglect and turned into a small oasis over the course of the past 22 years. I also work part-time for Symi Visitor Accommodation, helping independent travellers discover and enjoy Symi's simple pleasures for themselves.
