Enjoy Beautiful Towns in Alonissos!

There are some beautiful towns in Alonissos Island. The most beautiful towns are at the south of the island. Among those towns are few beautiful dwellings on the interior of the southern part of the island and on the coastal areas. Some of them are white towns and they hang on the green heights beyond the coastline.

The beautiful Patitiri Town or Patitirion is the capital of the beautiful Alonissos Island and it is beautiful by nature. The town is in on the Bay of Alonissos on a naturally beautiful area at the southeastern coast of Alonisos. It takes its Greek name, which means "pressing of wine" from the past prosperous wine production in the 1950s, which primarily was dependant on grapes.

It is the head of Alonissos Municipality, which includes the islets of Kyra Panagia, Adelfoi, Gioura, Peristera, Skantzoura, Piperi and Psathoura. Hydrofoil and excursion boats run from the beautiful Patitiri Town to Agios Konstantinos, Volos and Thessaloniki as well as the islands of Skopelos, Skiathos and Skyros.

The town is small and it suffered an earthquake that damaged many parts of it in 1965. However, the municipality reconstructed different parts of it. Constructions still seems to be running in many parts of the island. Watch the video at the bottom of the page.
