I Visited ALL 227 Inhabited Greek Islands: Kythira's Ancient Fortress

This journey across the Greek Islands continues as our host arrives in Kythira, the island of his ancestors. Experience the sacred peace of the Monastery of Panagia Myrtidiotissa and explore the island's incredible history. We look closely at the Antikythera Mechanism, considered the world's oldest analog computer, which tracked the stars and the ancient Olympics. The adventure turns high-stakes as the team joins an archaeological dive to the wreck of the Mentor, which sank in 1802. Next, we explore the mighty Venetian Fortress that defended Kythira for 400 years. On the island of Zakynthos, we visit the iconic Navagio Beach (Shipwreck Cove) to learn the true story of the smuggling ship Panagiotis. This episode provides an insightful look at the hidden history, unique people, and ancient wonders of the Aegean Sea.
