Lefkos Karpathos
After promising a friend that we would visit Karpathos and have a drink there on his behalf, Linda and I did in June 2008. It was a long journey from Wales but one that was so worthwhile. Not the prettiest island but by far the friendliest and most relaxing of the many we have visited. Lefkos is very pretty with some lovely sandy bays and wonderfull tavernas, the best in our opinion is the Central Taverna run by Spiros who is also the owner, the food is superb and all cooked by his sister Sofia and very well priced. Nothing is too much trouble. Lefkos is a great walking base and the walk to Mesochori is well worth the effort, meet the local islanders they are fantastic, and a visit to Maria's Taverna in Finiki is a must as is a drive to Olympos and Diafani. Pigadia and Amopi must be visited, we thought Apella beach was a bit of a let down, also visit the villages of Menetes and Orthos, in fact see as much as you can of an island that seems to become part of you and you feel you do not want to leave it!
