Fournoi Korseon
Many of the inhabitants are fishermen, although during the summer season the population is also occupied in tourist activities, mostly room rentals and catering.The archipelago is famous for being a hub of the Ancient World, which resulted in 53 shipwrecks found in the area until 2017.Transportation is often interrupted during the winter period (mostly from November to April) due to bad weather, mainly strong winds.The newly discovered ships rest in shallow waters and show signs of damage from fishing nets and plunderers, the archaeological team also found cargoes of amphoras that carried wine, oil, and other foods, and a load of terracotta lamps dating to the 2nd century AD.The lamps were made in Corinthian workshops, and bear the names of the artisans who crafted them, Octavius and Lucius.
