Panteli

The seaside village of Panteli

Panteli is the traditional fishermen's village. Its unique atmosphere made it the most popular place for the locals as well with the tourists. Small taverns and cafes next to the sea, fishing boats along with Luxury yachts, fishermen knitting their nets. Once you are in Panteli you fell like home, the locals keep there lives in harmony without any affection from the summer tourist crowds ,you will always get a kalimera (good morning) or gia sou (hello) no matter if you ever meet them before, you can as well be invited for a glass of ouzo or retsina in the local cafe's or taverns just for the sake of a good companionship. This hospitable mentality occurs the whole Greece and the Greek islands and as far as I'm concerned it's one of the main factors that attracts tourism in Greece apart from the Sunshine and the perfect Mediterranean climate
