Halki

Thanks to my big friend Yiannis I discovered Halki.

Halki (Greek: Χάλκη; alternatively Chalce or Chalki) is a Greek island and municipality in the Dodecanese archipelago in the Aegean Sea, some 6 km (4 mi) west of Rhodes…With an area of 28 km2 (11 sq mi), it is the smallest inhabited island of the Dodecanese. It is part of the Rhodes regional unit. It has a permanent population of 330, concentrated in one village…The island supported a much larger population but following emigration in the mid-20th century Chorio was almost completely abandoned… (Wikipedia source here)

This is one of the main beeches. The current (4th of March 2021) main pictures contains at least my three daughters on the SUP and probably my partner as well swimming (too nice position for being me… I don’t have a good relation with swimming… :-)…).

Overtime I will add more.
