At 18:23 in the video I pointed at a nearby island and called it Donousa, but that's actually Iraklia. The next day was extremely windy, so I biked over to Livadi beach and it was much calmer than Almyros beach, where I started the video. But getting between the two beaches is a bit of a pain without a vehicle because you have to go all the way up to the main town and then down again. So I recommend staying somewhere near Livadi beach or else in the Chora to have the best access to different restaurants. Renting a motorbike is a good idea if you want to explore the island. But I would also still recommend where I stayed at Anatoli Studios since it's a peaceful spot and they have a restaurant, a pool and it's a short walk to the nearby beach as well as to the other little beach I showed at the very end of the video.

I never get sick of looking at the water around the islands in Greece. Truly a beautiful sight!

[@konstantinosgavriilidis5440]

Your greek are coming along pretty well. Next summer I expect you to have full on conversations with greeks and reading ancient writings 😂

[@GertvanEmmenis]

Ah but the Greeks I've met will gladly translate, teach and entertain you, I surely miss Greece and Gabriels visits very welcome.

[@ladyblabla3611]

Finally a youtube traveler that show whitout the influencer filter vibe. It's like traveling along with Gabriel. Beautifull!

[@effie-montreal]

The hotel looked beautiful and this is such a cute island

[@drivanhawk3423]

Each island a little paradise and summer is just beginning. A Beautiful journey very inspiring, tempting to explore all the islands yourself. It brings across the atmosphere of sun, beach and sea air every time. Gabriel you show us all the beautiful places, so relaxed. I can not say it often enough. So cool, I wish you a wonderful time on the island.

[@tonypouliot351]

It's so cool to see that with all the time you visited Greece and the many islands your learning some Greek words!!! Awesome......

[@andreab.5289]

Juchuuuu, I‘m the first here😂 Greetings Fromm Germany. Enjoy Gabriel😊

[@janel697]

Another wow Greece visit! Thanks Gabriel! I've never been able to travel so you're the next best thing! Caves are not my thing bc I'm claustrophobic but I struggle through with you, holding my breath! 😊

[@alexvarvakis]

Stay in greece longer man, nothing beats Hellas in the summer, try the islands Elafonisos and kythira, you won’t be disappointed

[@GertvanEmmenis]

Maybe some Peloponnesses as well?

[@terjerendalsvik5461]

yeah! please dont leave the greek islands!!! so many more to see.

[@fromthethrone]

You looking good! 👍

[@feelingood7]

I admire you my friend!! Best videos of Greek islands!! Schoinousa I had some awesome moments there in the past!! Thanks for sharing this video with your unique style!!

[@michaelahass2695]

Yassou Gabriel, Wow, the Greek adventures and the way you film all this amazing Greek islands is really unic and full of your passion for heavenly landscapes, beaches, caves, churches, ancient hystorical ruins, nice peaceful towns with white / blue houses, and wonderful flowers surrounded by a crystal blue sea. You've visited a major part of the most important cycladic islands, even the small, wild ones. Loved them all through your eyes , except Mykonos and Santorini which I traveled to myself in June 2018. Thank you for sharing and for your hard work. Best wishes from Paris , looking forward for holidays. Bonne continuation mon ami et bonne chance 🖐 👍 🍀 ( I don't know how to say it in greek) . 😃

[@travismillhouse8936]

Gabe grab some cat treats and find the kitties 🇨🇦👍

[@TheHuski]

Another beautiful Greek island. Just lovely beaches with clear water. At least you have the beach to yourself 👍😃

[@djoker3915]

13:05 you are absolutely correct

[@nicklindsey3872]

Looks like an amazing place

[@user-se7zm6wj5i]

Thank you for sharing your exploration activity. That is interesting and gives a lot of information.

Absolutely gorgeous place

[@stellamanganari6970]

You are my hero Gabriel!! Enjoy my country!

[@mirsinispi44]

Good morning Gabriel 🌞🍉🍇🍒!! What a picturesque island 🏝 and suitable for long biking , hiking and swimming 🌊💧🐍 !!

[@ucube33]

Fun to get inspiration for future travels, loved your previous island videos from Koufonisi. Great to go to islands that are beautiful but simultaneously not completely occupied by obnoxious tourists that are scared of slightly going off the grid for a minute.

[@rjb6024]

"Is that a building.. or piles of rocks?" Classic Gabriel!

[@therealdeal26]

**Gabe comes through in the clutch**

[@speez3354]

You speak greek and goat very well!

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Ha, thanks.

[@janel697]

Question: what shoes are you wearing to withstand those rocky surfaces, and how long do they last? Please give another closeup of your necklace, and also pic of the lost one. Be well and stay safe. We depend on you! ❤

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

I'm wearing Teva sandals.

[@gianlucapagnoni283]

last september I walked down those road on a day trip from Iraklia, but it's part of the greek islands experience... can't wait to be back this september!

[@biggytenk]

Explore Pelješac

[@themissdior1235]

Hopefully not last lol loving Greece as much as Nepal .

[@wilfredotorres6628]

Hi Gabriel, you can't get more reclusive if you wanted. Schinnousa is a quiet island and there must be some exclusive spots for certain people on all these islands. I'm guessing that will be more of what people will see when traveling to certain areas that are partitioned off from the masses.

[@travelvideos]

I wonder what they do with the garbage. From the press, it seems that most of it goes to landfills. It would be nice to have sorted garbage, especially with food leftovers separated. That would create a nice compost that could be used in farming.

[@susannal100]

Looks like it would be useful to have a good pair of binoculars

[@greeceundiscovered9670]

That beach would be considered the nicest beach in all of mainland USA.

[@GertvanEmmenis]

Any chance to get you to the Peloponnesses coast line? There are some serious mountains?

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Not this trip but I hope to next time I come back.

[@Slykkpkins]

Cool

[@paulgilliland2992]

We’re not beach people per se but last year the prices for daily beds surrounded by thousands were minimum €800 and rising steeply if you wanted a front row. They will be on Ticketmaster soon.

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Insane, I really don't understand why anyone would pay that. I wouldn't even sit there for free, I'd look for a quieter spot.

[@michaellooby4187]

Dr Gabriel Doolittle he talks to all the animals

[@pamhegarty4626]

Do see if you can go to Delos. It’s amazing

[@mariosdr3740]

Hey Gab, Sorry to say but you have to go back to Hydra again. Still a lot of things to capture there

[@presario1KA]

Hello Gabriel! Do you know why the island Kairos is uninhabitable? Will you go there? Have a great journey!

[@tacocruiser4238]

You should just stay in Greece permanently. Its obvious that Greece is your favorite place in the world. You keep coming back to it.

[@pasqualeabarno]

The ridiculous twin double bed setup🙃 Ay ya yaii !!

Boom, got it.

[@alfannin872]

I think those Greek islands have more rocks than West Texas. Have you been to Patmos? Is that part of Greece now?

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Yes: www.youtube.com/@GabrielTravelerVideos/search?query=Patmos

[@djoker3915]

now? lol

[@PaulaBean]

Are you going to sell your bicycle?

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

You'll see in the next video. 😎

[@LucasRMA]

Gabe, just curious, do you wear sunscreen?

[@SamDiMento]

It's pronounced "Sic-LA-dic" in English. "Kee-klah-dace" in Greek. I think you're combining the two into "Kih-kla-dis" or something.

[@Talmerigh]

1

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Actually second.

[@effie-montreal]

1 maybe

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Third actually.

[@roamingalone5226]

Gab you a drone to help you.

[@peterbedford2610]

Which island or islands have the most ancient ruins?

[@Gk-ug6gu]

Crete, Rhodes,Delos(it's a huge ancient site), Santorini,Aegina, Naxos,Samos,Kos and the list goes on.

[@jimjim8645]

​@@Gk-ug6guAlso Samothrace

[@roygoad2870]

So expensive now, average price of €30 euros for a decent meal 😅

[@naevan1]

Nah

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Gyros are six euros on Mykonos (current location), which is double the price, but two for 12 fills you up at least. But yeah if you go to a restaurant, get a side dish, main course and a drink or two then it will likely be 20-30 euros or more.
