0:01
arriving at a Greek island where time
0:03
seems to have paused and the only sounds
0:05
are waves lapping the shore and the
0:07
occasional goat bell. That's what it
0:09
feels like to land in Kimolo or Anafi.
0:12
Two cyclic jewels untouched by mass
0:14
tourism, each offering its own version
0:18
Kimolos, the quiet neighbor of Milos,
0:21
charms with its picturesque whitewashed
0:23
houses, cobbled lanes, and tranquil
0:25
rhythm. It's the kind of place where you
0:28
can wander Coro, the island's main
0:30
village, without a map and stumble upon
0:32
hidden courtyards, artisal bakeries, and
0:34
panoramic views. Kimolos is a sanctuary
0:38
for those who love gentle walks, secret
0:40
coes like Prasa Beach with turquoise
0:42
water, and a slow food culture rooted in
0:46
Anafi, lying east of Santorini, is even
0:49
more remote and raw. The ferry ride
0:52
alone feels like an odyssey, but once
0:54
you arrive, you are rewarded with
0:56
surreal cliffs, untamed landscapes, and
0:59
hiking trails that lead to ancient ruins
1:01
and the dramatic monastery of
1:04
Anafi is for purists, hikers, solitude
1:07
seekers, and those who crave space to
1:09
reflect. The beaches such as Rukas
1:13
stretch long and wild, offering freedom
1:15
and a sense of cosmic detachment for
1:17
modern life. While Kimolo's whispers
1:20
with elegance and intimacy, Anafafi
1:22
exudes primal silence and spiritual
1:26
Both are havens for travelers wanting to
1:28
reconnect with nature, simplicity, and
1:33
So, if you had to choose your escape,
1:35
would it be Kimolo's soft-spoken charm
1:36
or Anafi's untamed serenity?
