Hello Tiffany I am an ardent 'Grecophile'and a fairly recent follower of your videos which I LOVE as they give me a "Greek Fix" when I'm unable to be there in person. Thanks so much for your work and efforts. I really appreciate It Lisa

Thanks Tiffany. I’m planning on returning to Corfu summer of 2025. I think Corfu is a great island because it has lots to see and do and is not too expensive. Or at least you can get away from the more expensive places and find cheaper options.

Since it’s larger, you can find something in your budget.

In my humble opinion not all the 200 inhabited islands are able to receive tourists unless you visit them by yacht but you have to be sure first if they got a very good physical harbor or a closed bay that the yacht will be protected by most winds. For instance Kinaros is an island with only one resident a woman in her sixties or seventies. Also some of them are reserved from the Greek navy for exercise training mainly with shell bombardment and just getting onto them is just too risky. Also for health reasons some tourists must consider to choose an island that has a hospital on. You can easily by accident be bitted by a rare venomous hornet or even a simple bee can immediately cause a reaction to your body and only antihistaminic medicine or cortisone can save a life. Or you can step up to a Drakaina fish and it's spike is quite painful. Very rare never happened to me my family or friends or relatives.

There definitely a few that are inhabited and hard to visit. I went to one a couple of years ago on a sail boat. I think there were more goats than people! The ones that are protected, I don't think are considered inhabited but I could be wrong. On my recent sail to Kea, I wanted to stop at Makronissi but read it wasn't allowed due to its historical nature.

Hi Tiffany, I'd like to have more information on Ferryhopper. When you purchase tickets do they appear right away in the app or do they email the tickets? How far in advance do you have to purchase?Also how do you present the tickets at the boat? Do they have to be printed out? Or just show them on your phone? Thanks for the info. I've only ever had paper tix.
@agirlandherpassport4 ай бұрын
Most have moved to electronic and some you get right away. Others you have to check in and you get it. You can print them or have them scanned if they are electronic. Not too far unless it’s August or near a big holiday.
