SUMMARY:Agios Georgios horse races and Kamara dance\, Koukounaries
LOCATION:Koukounaries\, Skiathos\, Greece
DESCRIPTION:On St George's day (or Easter Monday when 23 April falls in Lent) a liturgy is held at the chapel of Agios Georgios by the Koukounaries lagoon\, the horses are blessed and then raced along the strip of land by the old carnagio\, with separate heats for racehorses\, working horses and donkeys. In the Chora the same days see the Kamara\, the island's slow women's dance in heavy traditional dress\, in the square of Agia Triada on Easter Monday and Tuesday. Spring\, so accommodation is cheap\; the races are informal and start late morning.\n\nhttps://aegeanblueprint.com/festivals/skiathos/#koukounaries-agios-georgios-horse-races-and-kamara-dance-kou
