Lookout Point

by steventilly

Further on, at Agias Fokas, there's a Greek lookout post on a promentory. The rock is painted with the Greek flag, just in case you're in doubt as to where you are. On our trip to Bodrun we noticed a rocky lookout point there, painted this time in the Turkish flag. I expect they just sit there all day, looking across at each other.
By the time you get here, to Agias Fokas, the number of people you see has really dwindled. There are some small, islolated little beaches down below the road and there are a few people on some of them. At Agias Fokas itself there's a small "resort" - some apartments, a hotel, a taverna or two. It must be a strange place to stay.

Chapel

by steventilly

A small chapel stands on the road that leads down from the Agora area towards the seafront near the tourist information office (sorry, these are very vague directions). It looks kind of "small and cute" from outside but the inside is a wonder to behold. Decorated in much the same style as many a larger Greek church, it is a wonderous display of colour inside.

'Cos Kos Is Best

by RPW

"Kos - Kardemena Resort"

I went to Kos as a last minute holiday and had the time of my life, just like the song !
At the time I had a partner and we had sort of decided rather hurriedly to get something booked, neither of us had been to any of the Greek Islands and we had a few options, but having spoken to work colleagues we decided on Kos. Before leaving some people had said that Kos Town was the place to be, others said Kardemena - as first timers we were at the Islands mercy. I remember coming off the plane and thinking it's a bit desolute, and then getting driven to resorts and thinking "this is the pits" and "I hope this aint our apartment" but anyway we eventually came to ours and although it didnt look much ( initially) we found out after a couple of hours, that we were almost on the edge of the main drag in Kardemena ! It was a memorable time for lots of reasons and one I will always remember.
