Kythira
Kythira, legendary island of the Attica region, birthplace of Aphrodite. The deepest point of the Mediterranean, the Calypso Deep, is only a few hundred kilometers away. Once a center of trade and an important military base, Kythira was fiercely fought over. Spartans, Byzantines, Venetians, Ottomans and French coveted it. Churches and castles tell of those times. From the palace of the Venetian governor, the "Eye of Crete", you can see three ancient seas: the Aegean, Ionian and Cretan. As you descend, you will pass through picturesque villages to beautiful beaches and small harbor towns. Experience the magic of past times on an island full of stories and myths in the middle of the eternal sea.
