island hopping in Greece: Koufonisia

It’s not easy to capture the feeling of Greece, but I will try my best to share these two magical weeks. Hence my absence, I was happily lost in the Greek Isles. As those who read my blog know, Greece is close to our hearts. It’s one of my Italian’s preferred destinations, (he has been to over 15 islands in the Cyclades, and I to 10.) This is also where he proposed, and where we spent our honeymoon.

Our third island-hopping adventure landed us in Mykonos. We boarded the first boat to Koufonisia, part of the smaller Cyclades and what is becoming a hotspot among Greeks and foreigners alike.

It is here we discovered gorgeous beaches, each with it’s own taverna, all within walking distance.

And the views? This was our morning breakfast spot. Heaven!

The island is small and we got to know it (and love it) in only three days. Unlike most of the islands, no car or motorbike is needed, and boats or buses transport you from port to beach, or to an uninhabited island which we also visited. The people of Koufonisia are known to be some of the most hospitable in Greece, and the food was a perfect mix of freshly caught seafood and fine dining.

It was not easy to say goodbye, but the paradise called Serifos awaited…

      It was a very long and adventurous two weeks! You must experience the feeling of Greece one day, when the twins are a little bigger, or perhaps for a romantic escape…

    I followed all your Greek adventures on Instagram and Facebook and the photos were gorgeous. I have not been to Greece or any Greek Islands, but want to. Mr Misadventures went there many, many times but it was many moons ago. I know I will get there one day! Do you speak any Greek?
