Thanks KV
So Tasos is still doing his boat tours, as he did out of former Tasomanolis Taverna.

Kalispera DandC, the tavern no longer exists. The former taverna is now a boutique.

It now offers boat tours: https://plakiasboattours.com/

Yassas, the price level in Plakias has risen dramatically this year. You pay ?2-?3 more for a meal than last year. The prices are outrageous...

Water is still free as a welcome drink - with a few exceptions. Olive oil is nowhere to be found on the tables.

I've just spent a week in Paleochora and the price level there is much cheaper (tavernas, bakeries, supermarkets).

Holiday Companies / Re: Car Hire

Yassas, have now booked again for 2 days in April with Moto Auto Plakias. They now have almost 100 cars in their fleet.

However, the price for a week was cheaper with another provider.

So it's worth comparing the prices at Moto Auto Plakias, Car Island Plakias and Monza Car Bike Rental.

KV - yassas! thanks for the Sirocco info. That's a pity, as it has become a fave of ours.
e1.50 for water - I can live with that, but e5 for bread is a bit steep! Easy enough to refuse it though I'd guess.

Sirocco (sic) has really come up in the ranks in the last couple of years - smart revamp and great all round. We ate there 3 times last July and all 3 were excellent. Recommended!

Oh dear, that is expensive, hope its not repeated elsewhere, but bound to be. Our first night will be in Siroko which I am guessing will also be expensive, but it is our tradition to eat there on the first night for the past 20 years.
