Плаване с капитан Герасимус и екипажа му


Винаги бих предпочела ваканцията ми да е динамична пред това да лежа на плажа по цял ден. Затова предложението да се изкара един цял ден на кораб "Одисея" с капитан Герасизмус беше единодушно прието. Потеглихме в 9:30 сутринта от порта на Нидри и се отправихме към първата спирка - морската пещера Папаниколис.



Стигайки до нея, вече нямахме търпение да скочим в сините води. Разбира се, не забравихме маската и шнорхела, които бяха неотлъчно до нас през цялото пътешествие. 


Изследвайки морското дъно, ме побиваха тръпки от дълбочината надолу, но беше забавно. След около 40мин дойде време да се отправим към следващата спирка - остров Меганиси


След разходката и запознаването с местната култура там, стана време за обяд. Но не какъв да е, а специален - на "частния" остров на капитан Герасимус - подарък за жена му след дълги години съвместен живот. Тук е мястото да вметна, че капитанът имаше страхотно чувство за хумор и ни разсмиваше не веднъж, а опитните екскурзоводи не пропуснаха да ни разкажат по нещо за всяко едно място, което посетихме.



Речта на кораба беше предимно гръцка, английска и италианска. Ако се чудите защо италианска - островите в Йонийско море са били дълго време под венецианско влияние и днес са предпочитана дестинация за туристите от Ботуша.


След като пристигнахме на "частния" плаж (на снимката горе), на който бяхме единствените, ни очакваше барбекю. Менюто беше традиционно гръцко - сувлаки, гръцка салата и дзадзики, както и бяло и червено вино. 


Двата часа на този плаж бяха напълно достатъчни, тъй като жегата беше непоносима. Време беше да продължим с програмата, която включваше посещение на друг частен остров - Мадури и къпане във водите му. В миналия пост споменах, че има доста частни острови в района, собственост на богати и известни личности. Тази тема обаче не ми е особено интересна, затова ще си я спестя. 



И така, в ден, изпълнен с много плуване, традиционно хапване, пийване на узо, уроци по сиртаки и опознаване на местния хайлайф, беше време да се връщаме. Към 17ч. корабът ни остави на порта, от който потеглихме сутринта. Стори ми се, че всички бяха доволни от добре изкарания ден. Колкото до мен - вдигам две ръце за екскурзията с капитана и екипажа на кораба Odysseia (сайтът им тук), с които си изкарахме чудесно!

    1. It was amazing indeed. Yes, the boat is called "Odysseia"and looks like a pirate ship indeed.

      ps: The top is from H&M. The print on it says "Eat, beach, sleep, repeat".

    1. Oh, boat trips are a must for me. They are always interesting, but this one was a lot of fun as well. Yes, Ionian islands are a preferred destination for Italians, that's why Italian is widely spoken there. Thank you for your kind words Ivonne!

  10. Wow, this looks like such an amazing adventure! I can't get over how amazing the water looks (love the underwater shots) and that yellow building is beyond cute :)

  11. Haha, the first photo is everything! :D This post is pure positive energy and once again, I thought I was there with you (and the captain :D) I also enjoy that type of tours and I like them not only because of the "hidden treasures" that you get to see, but usually the crew is so positive and that makes the whole experience much better. I'm definitely going there when I visit Lefkada. I've never been on a private island, that sounds cool although I think we share the same opinion about that topic. The photos are breathtaking and long story short, I enjoyed this post a lot :)
    Have a great weekend!

    1. I am sure you'd have enjoyed this boat trip. The crew was very positive indeed, that's what I really loved. Private islands are not very interesting, there are certain areas you cannot pass, but we stopped at one "public" bay for a swim. Glad to hear you enjoyed this post Tijana!

  12. This must have been a joy to be able to experience. I'm like you, I prefer to be dynamic and a bit daring and not just lying on the beach during holiday. I like the photos here very much and it's nice to know more history about why Italian was spoken. It makes sense, quite like Switzerland with German, Italian, and French present there.

    1. A holiday is for having rest, but that's how I relax - having a dynamic and entertaining time. Your example of the languages is accurate. Thanks for your comment Madison!

  15. I'm also not a fan of the endless hours spent doing nothing on beaches. To be honest I can't really stay still on a sunbed for more than 15 minutes.
    This bot trip looks very adventurous and a perfect way to spend a day from your holiday.
