You arrive on a sun-bright quay and the island reaches out immediately — a church perched on a tiny islet, a palace garden dropping to the sea, and a maze of cobbled lanes that hum with shutters and espresso cups. The tour begins at Kanoni, where the chapel of Panagia Vlacherna and Mouse Island (Pontikonissi) sit like a postcard daring you to cross the narrow causeway; the water around them gleams and the breeze seems to push visitors toward the shore.
