ORTHODOX EASTER IN FOLEGANDROS
Party in the squares
Folegandros, green and flowering in spring, is a riot of colors: the yellow and purple of the bushes, the red of the poppies and the white of a thousand daisies and caper flowers. The island is surrounded by the scent of Mediterranean aromas which spreads along the paths that lead to deserted beaches or to small churches perched on a hill with breathtaking views.
Orthodox Easter in 2025 coincides with Catholic Easter and is celebrated on April 20; for 3 days, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, the streets of the island are transformed into a theater full of parties, songs, music; the houses are all open and the tables are laden with local dishes and liqueurs to welcome visitors: everyone is welcome !!
