Field trip to Oinousses

Our team participated in the Summer Camp hosted by Isalos.net and Helmepa in Oinousses, Chios. The Summer Camp's subject was "Maritime Sustainability", a raising challenge, that the maritime society is summoned to deal with. We would like to thank isalosnet, naftikachronika and helmepa savetheseas for giving us the opportunity to get in touch with so many remarkable personalities from the greek maritime society and for the warm hospitality, that allowed us to explore both the glorious maritime history of the island and the quaint island itself.

Later in the day we visited the maritime museum, which is located in the centre of the island’s port and houses ship models, paintings, documents and books, all related to maritime tradition of Inousses. Later a guided tour was organized by the major of the island, who gave us the chance to glimpse the island’s history through the emblematic buildings, quaint church and the vivid narrations.

Also an additional collaboration was made, about the bodies, personal and corporate responsibility, who are able to lead maritime to a greener path.
