Kavala Port lies on the coast of Northern Greece, and is the main port for the city of Kavala, Greece’s second largest city in the northern region. The historic buildings paint Kavala as one of the most picturesque cities in Greece, and when the sea breeze flows through the streets it creates an energy that is unique to the city. The port itself prompted the evolution of the city’s progression and became the gateway to ports around the Aegean Sea and the coast of Asia Minor. In modern times, the port is primarily used for fishing and public transport, though it is also home to a growing water sports scene. The city has shred its tag of the ‘Mecca of Tobacco’ which it was labelled during the time the bourgeoisie were beginning to take command of the city. The enigmatic character of the city is still intact, though it has recently become a much friendlier and welcoming town. The port is particularly welcoming; several thousand visitors pass through the terminal each year, with daily crossings during the summer months. The port offers sailings to many nearby islands and resorts, including the Aegean Islands, Lesbos and other islands belonging to Greece. The ferry companies offering the crossings are considered to be the best in the region, and offer food and drink to passengers whilst on board.
Syros is like the endearing younger brother in the Cyclades; rural villages encompass the capital, relaxing restaurants offer fresh food and colourful houses grace the landscape - yet despite its charm and charisma - the island never roars into touristic prominence like its siblings. Though Syros is hardly a deserted island; a steady stream of visitors create a friendly atmosphere that never overflows into uncomfortable busyness - the beaches are popular but not overcrowded and you can always find a seat at a café or restaurant. It is the perfect cocktail of vibrant tranquillity. Much like every Greek island, Syros has gradually adapted its market and outlets to appeal to tourists, however, it has admirably maintained its authentic traditions. Ermoupolis City Hall and Saint Nicholas Church are examples of original architecture, showcasing the impressive structural designs that are quintessential of their location. Several churches and cathedrals add to the rustic experience, and art galleries and museums provide a cultural edge.
Much of the island is possible to cover by foot or bicycle, and there are companies offering scooter rental for fairly cheap prices.
