WIDOW'S PORT - GALAXIDI, GREECE -
After visiting the historic site of Delphi in the midday heat, I desperately wanted somewhere to retreat to for the final few days of my time in Greece. Somewhere that wasn’t going to be full of tourists. Galaxidi was exactly what I was looking for, even though I didn’t know it at the time. I chose to visit simply because it was only 21 miles from Delphi.
Galaxidi curves around little bays and is beautiful in that laid-back Greek fashion — with an attractive church perched on the hilltop and the village tumbling down the slopes beneath it. The main port is small and is full of European family yachts. The port was a major ship building center in the 19th century, but you’d only guess that now thanks to the grand mansions still overlooking the sea front.
Fish restaurants line the quay but there’s no one there hassling you for money like you might experience in other places. Service is typically Greek — you can expect to be there for some time but you’ll most definitely enjoy your food and drink. This is the sort of place where the day is dominated by eating — an afternoon walk or swim is really just preparation for the evening meal.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the “Galaxidiotes” did not manage to pass the sails to steam. The most commercial and prosperous port of Greece, along with that of Syros, in the era of sailing ships, lost the bet of modernization but managed to save its special character, remaining a place steeped in history and the nobility of its maritime tradition. Galaxidi was classified as a protected area in 1978. An old, glorious maritime state was thus transformed into a modern traditional settlement, oriented towards mild tourism. Linking them, the mansions and cantons, which have been largely preserved unchanged over the decades and centuries, around its two harbors.
We spend some valuable time strolling across the Galaxidi town but had discriminating experience from the famous STEKI FAMILY RESTAURANT.
