It will appear like the glow from a forest fire at about 8.30, slowly rising behind our hill. The moon by 9 will illuminate the remains of the ancient temple. By midnight its luminescence will appear as a radiant pathway over the sea.
The Greek Ministry of Culture has arranged that 115 Archeological sites and monuments will be open free of charge till midnight on the night of the august full moon and for a few nights before and after.

Nothing seems to be planned for Poseidon's Temple on Poros this full moon. The piano recitals that usually take place there are scheduled for later in the month. But there will be a full moon party on Neorion beach and popular 70's greek singer Paschalis will be entertaining the crowds.
This 70's singer must be at least 70 himself by now
By the light of the moon
By the light of the silvery moon
