We were amazed as we entered the Dardanelles Strait in Turkey. Along the coastline there was so much going on: ferries, trains, towns, and monuments. It almost made you forget to look at the water — until suddenly large dolphins started leaping in front of our bow and diving through the bubbles created by the front of our catamaran hulls.
You don’t expect to walk through a mini-desert on a Greek island — yet suddenly the Ammothínes appear right in front of you. This area on the island of Limnos consists of fine sand dunes formed by strong northern winds and ancient sea currents. Over thousands of years, the sand was carried inland from the coast and accumulated between old volcanic hills. Because the area is so vast and difficult to explore on foot, we launched our drone to admire the beautiful dunes and this seaside mini-desert from above.
Molyvos is often considered one of the most beautiful villages in all of Greece. When we moored our boat in the harbor, we immediately understood why. Here, it feels as if time has stood still. The medieval castle on top of the hill dominates the view and has witnessed both the Byzantine and the Ottoman eras. We sent our drone up to capture the beautiful village of Molyvos from a bird’s-eye view.
