LE RETOUR À KASTELLORIZO
Go there and contact
On July 19, a very special tradition continues year after year in the port of Kastellorizo: dressed people throw themselves into the water to commemorate the return of the inhabitants to the island after their evacuation during the war of national independence. The story goes that the pope, who remained alone on the island for the duration of this evacuation, threw himself - with joy! - in the waters of the port when he saw the inhabitants return. It is the occasion for great celebrations and rituals where all generations meet in the water of the port.
