Families Encouraged to Move to Antikythera with £15,000 Incentive

# Families Offered £15,000 to Relocate to Stunning Greek Island

## Potamos village on Antikythera boasts picturesque beaches and rich culture

Families are being enticed to move to Potamos village on the Greek island of Antikythera, which is renowned for its stunning beaches and traditional architecture. The island, currently home to just 45 permanent residents, promises a tranquil lifestyle nestled among narrow alleys and a close-knit community.

The initiative aims to rejuvenate this lesser-known gem of the Aegean Sea by offering £15,000 to families willing to call it home. This investment is part of a broader strategy to bolster its population and sustain local traditions.

According to Wayne Mills, Head of Operations at Seven Seas Worldwide, "Antikythera has only 45 permanent residents as of now, so it's a tranquil and close-knit community." The funding for this relocation scheme is part of efforts to increase the island's appeal to families seeking a peaceful living environment amid beautiful natural scenery.

Antikythera, located between Crete and Peloponnese, is not only picturesque but also rich in history. Its serene beaches and charming village life offer a unique retreat from the hustle and bustle of modern living.

As this initiative unfolds, the local government hopes to attract a larger community that appreciates the island's beauty and lifestyle, ensuring its preservation for future generations.
