Ágios Stéfanos Sinión

BOAT DAY BOAT DAY!!! The hostel has a boat tour that was only €36 for an 8 hour tour with lunch and some drinks! What a steal. I was really excited because I felt like I haven’t been able to see a whole lot of Greece, just what I can see and reach from the shore.
After getting pretty much no sleep (but, I didn’t have a roommate which was nice!)
- side note that I forgot to add was that I had originally booked a 4 bed dorm, but it ended up only being 2 bed which was awesome, because i would have different roommates each night, who would check out in the morning, and a new one coming at night- meaning that I had the room to myself pretty much until sleep time! And yeah on this night I didn’t even have a roommate which was sooooo nice- I miss having a personal space.

Back to the day, we convened for the boat trip at 9am- which is early for me. Took a shuttle to the other side of the island, where the driver (who also owns the boat) drove like crazy, but I was asleep so I couldn’t pay no mind. We got on the boat, and once again I slept for the beginning of the ride, up until we got to the first swim spot. I jumped off of the top level of the boat which shocked myself, because I am very afraid of heights, but I knew that I would be mad at myself if I didn’t. They had pool noodles which made the swimming more leisurely. The first spot had some caves which I didn’t get to see, but the swim was refreshing nonetheless because it was getting HOT. The second spot was a rocky beach where we spent time swimming, picking out pretty rocks (which only look pretty in the water). Something that I’m sad about is that I literally saw 0 shells in Greece like whaaaat. It is what it is. At this swim spot, the crew prepared some dinner, which was honestly the best dinner that i’ve had in corfu. All of the souvlaki that I’ve had thus far comes with fries, and not rice!! But this one did, and it really hit the spot. We went to the last swim spot and then headed back. I thiiiink the route that the boat took was just around the island of Corfu, but it was headed North, so we were essentially in Albania, which is cool!!
When we got back, I was in dire need of an ice cream so we went into the village near our hostel to get some with a girl named Iris from the Netherlands. After that, we went to our respective hostels to recuperate. Also, have I mentioned the adorable stray cats that can be found EVERYWHERE? It’s a bit sad, but they’re soooo cute.

We then went to get some pizza and pre-drinks for dinner. We had full intention to wreak havoc in the bar tonight, but the boat trip draiiiiiined us. Me and Amber ended up falling asleep on the beach while Nieve watched us for 45 mins 😭😭 she’s a real one.Meer informatie
