Title

In Kouri of Kalamaria in 1955

Description

In this moment captured from the Kouri pier, Theodoros Avgidis is seen diving into the sea, a common and refreshing activity in this coastal area. On the shore, the small chapel of Agia Paraskevi stands proudly, a landmark of local spiritual life. Nearby, the building of the Nautical Scouts (Naftoproskopoi) can be seen, reflecting the maritime traditions of the community and the connection between the younger generations and the sea.

Two large boats, referred to as Sia Kaiki, are docked behind the Kirkiraki fish shop, which was a popular local establishment. These traditional fishing boats are tied up alongside six smaller fishing boats, their sterns equipped with lamps, which were commonly used for night fishing.
