Nisyros is one of the youngest large volcanic centres in Greece included in the active volcanoes along with Methana, Milos and Santorini. The oldest rock forma- tions are 160 000 years old, while the youngest (prehistoric) are 15 000 years old and cover the entire island. Most of Nisyros is moun- tainous, volcanic and very fertile. The island is composed of volcanic rock formations, with swelled ele- vations that were formed by pre- vious volcanic activities. The va- rious rock formations, (basalt etc.) have been used for the construction of various buildings such as the Palaiokastro and the bell tower of the Church of Saint John the Theologian just outside Nikea...

panagia-spiliani
The monastery of Panagia Spiliani is built at the top of a hill northwest of Mandraki. Around the monastery retained sections of the Paleokastro wall still exist, whereas the castle is protected by the «Castle of the Knights of Rhodes» built by the Knights of St. John in the early of 14th century. The biggest part of the monastery is built in a cave. The cave is divided into two churches. The north is dedicated to the Kimisi tis Theotokou (Assumption of Mary) and the south, Agios Charalambos (Saint Charalampos).

kos-marmari-beachMarmari is 15 kilometers west of Kos Island town (at the northern coast of the island) and 4 kilometers north of the village Pyli. Its long and sandy beach is very popular and attracts many visitors due to its short distance from Kos town, its beautiful environment and the fact that it is well organized with umbrellas,
sun beds and water sports facilities. Of course a lot of swimming, sunbathing and sand games also take place. The several traditional taverns and cafes offer snacks and cool refreshments but you can also find places that offer a full meal. There are a lot of hotel units in the area which makes accommodation options very convenient. Medical services and a Police Station are available in Pyli (4 kilometers south of the beach). Access to Marmari is very easy (15 kilometers) by bus, which runs frequently, by taxi, by car and motorbike. If you have a yacht, you may reach the Marmari beach by sea and use the little port for trips to the beautiful islands nearby.
Greece, being one of the most beautiful nations in the European region, attracts more than ten million tourists a year. This is not at all surprising since it is considered as home to many breathtaking beaches and excellent scenery. One of its main attractions and well-visited places is the village of Marmari. Many cheap holidays to Greece are spent here because this place offers an excellent spot where anyone can be one with the nature and can ultimately relax and unwind. Another good thing about this is that it is conveniently located near other equally beautiful islands. This means you can opt to visit any of these if you wish to do so.
