If your two priorities for a Greek Island vacation are dining and beachtime, Kokkari could very well be paradise!
As for the question I ask in my headline — What’s cooking in Kokkari? — the answer is: Just about anything you would want to eat!
Below are photos of some of the restaurants and signs, as well as pictures of the three Greek dishes we ordered for lunch. Those are followed by links to a Flickr album with additional restaurant and sign photos, as well as one album containing Kokkari village photos and another containing pictures of the three beaches.
Don’t be surprised if you feel hungry after viewing the pics!
