We have our last fabulous breakfast at the Albatros. I would definitely recommend this small family run hotel. It has the friendliness of a family hotel but with very high standards and excellent customer service. We have a couple of hours before returning to the hotel for our taxi. This has been a…
This really is turning out to be a beach holiday – well on the days we had sunshine anyway. We aren’t ‘sit on the beach all day’ people but with the lack of excursions (I had really wanted to go to Albania and a trip to Corfu or one of the Sivotan islands) we are…
We take advantage of the nice weather spend the morning on Zavia Beach, saving our appetite for the evening. Late afternoon we change and get ready to head up to Perdika Village on the bus. This is the last bus of the day so we also take the details of Giogios the taxi driver so…
Today is another bright day and we’re certainly not going to take it for granted! After breakfast we decide to discover more of the coastline with an early morning walk. We had only viewed Zavia beach from the main road above the other day so decide to walk down to the beach itself – it’s…

We were out for the count after an exhausting day of travelling. We knew that the forecast was for rain for the first few days here – we had been checking the week before we left England. It was raining – not spitting but heavily raining! We needed to go back to the travel agency…
We’ve been looking forward to this trip for some time. I’d set my sights in Sivota after seeing an aerial photograph of Sivota and its surrounding islands a few years ago. It takes a lot to drag me away from the islands but this is a trip that I’ve really got to do. Originally I’d…
