The 1st May is a National holiday. The tradition is to ‘capture’ the day. Most of the locals go walking to collect a variety of wild flowers, then hand-make wreaths of flowers to hang on the front of their houses and shops. They believe it gives good will for the month.

21st May is a celebration for those persons who are named Kostandinos (or shortened version of) and Eleni. Most name days are celebrated in their own homes or in restaurants where eating, drinking and lots of dancing takes place! Happy Name Day
