Summary

[edit]
Description
English: fotostrasse.com/delos

Delos is a small strip of land near Mykonos, but don't let its small size fool you since this island is one of Greece's most important archaeological, historical and mythological sites. The entire island is an excavation site, one of the largest ones in the Mediterranean, and it's a fantastic experience to walk among the ruins and see how the ancient Greeks used to live.

Delos gets even more attractive in a mythological sense since the island is the birthplace of the twin gods: Artemis and Apollo. Due to that, Delos was considered to many as a holy sanctuary island. Because of this glorious past and everything that comes with it, UNESCO declared Delos a part of the World Heritage List back in 1990.

We visited the island on a sunny day in the summer of 2021 while onboard Running on Waves. While we researched the islands and places we would visit during our cruise, we learned about Delos, and we were genuinely excited to see it.
