Winter in Leros

Well its is now the beggining of spring so the winter slowly goes away. This year February was a great surprise for all Greece especially the heavy snow in Athens was amazing in some areas like Nikea and Korydallos the snow was higher that usually in Florina at this time of the Year. In many areas of the Greek mainland in the North was ideal for Ski and other winter sports. But Leros is not a place for this kind of weather, as usual the winter in Leros for many locals is the best time of the year. Nice warm cafes time for bagamon and pilota. With the latest fashion many houses in Leros have made fire places as well as some Cafeterias like Castelo where the atmosphere is cosy with the wood burning while you enjoy the sorokada (the south wind rough sea, Sirocco)  . Winter usually snows very rare in Leros but this year the snow came very near but unfortunatelly in other islands. As for rains we have a lot, and this is a blessing for the local agriculture as well as for the municipality water supply. A vist in Leros during the winter is a good idea if you want to meet and know the locals better. there are many hotels open like Miramare in Lakki and Crithonis Paradise in Krithoni so accommodation wont be a problem.
