It is likely I will be spending time in Delphi this year - I want to see the site of the Oracle. Athens is my starting point and I was thinking, what else is there in the Delphi area, or within driving distance? I have seen very little of mainland Greece. Also on that trip I want to visit Marathon and Olympia - does it make sense? Delphi is a must-see for this time, but I could let the other two places go if I need to.

I urge you to visit the Hosios Loukas Monastery at Steiri! There are fantastic 11th-c. mosaics! Check out google maps.

I am going to Milos soon - I thought I would compile some information about beaches to see while there:
Sarakiniko Beach – This is one of the most stunning beaches on Milos, known for its white volcanic rocks that contrast with the sea. Some great photo ops here!
Tsigrado Beach – Tsigrado is a secluded Beach and can only be accessed through a narrow passage, which adds to its charm. It's untouched, fairly private and worth the extra effort to get there. Being here does feel like an escape!
Firiplaka Beach –This beach has s a long stretch of white, powdery sand lapped by crystal-clear waters. It's a great beach for families because there's more around here - like food, bathrooms, etc.
Papafragas Beach – Did you know this beach once attracted pirates? That's cool! There are some "cave like" formations here, which probably is what attracted the pilots.
Are there other beaches I should put on the list?
