E239 – Kastellorizo – The Tiny Greek Island You’ve Probably Never Heard Of

After seven years of creating sailing content, we take a well-earned break from filming and spend a month exploring Cyprus. We visit Larnaca, Nicosia and Paphos, dive the famous Zenobia shipwreck, and explore incredible sites including Kolossi Castle, Kykkos Monastery and the ancient ruins of Nea Paphos. Eventually, it’s time to get moving again. We clear out of Ayia Napa Marina and sail to the tiny Greek island of Kastellorizo, where a colourful waterfront town sits beneath the mountains. We explore this magical little island, swim in the Blue Cave and visit the ancient Lycian Tomb before checking out and making the short 3.8 nautical mile passage to Kaş, Turkey. The adventure continues!

Hey there! We’re Chris and Jo, an ordinary Aussie couple living our extraordinary dream aboard our Seawind 1260 since January 2019 and now we continue from 2024 aboard our new 1370! Our adventure began with an unforgettable journey down the east coast of Australia, followed by a sail to the stunning New Caledonia. In 2020, we continued our exploration further north, and by 2021 and 2022, we circumnavigated Australia, discovering breathtaking locations along the way. Having previously owned fishing and water-skiing boats, our passion for sailing deepened after crewing in South Australia, leading us to make the leap into full-time living at sea. We hope to inspire you, just as we were inspired by other YouTube channels, to chase your dreams and explore the wonders of this beautiful world.
