Incredible prices have been found on the Greek islands by tourists, with Greeks who recently visited Mykonos, Santorini, Paros, Naxos and Ios talking about price lists reminiscent of the... 600 euro crab legs.
In the Alpha Hellas report, Greeks who traveled to the most popular Greek islands said that in Mykonos you can find wrapped skewers for 5 euros, while some caterers may charge double the price if the customer is a foreigner. A young man claimed that a 5 euro crepe for Greeks went up to 10 euros when the customer spoke English.
The shocking thing is that for a portion of gyro in Mykonos the customer can pay from 17 to 23 euros, for a scoop of ice cream from 5 to 7 euros, while there were cases where a small bottle of water cost 2 euros.
Drink prices are also at an all-time high, especially in the Cyclades. Apart from Mykonos and Santorini, a simple drink is very expensive in Paros, Naxos and Ios, from 13 to 15 euros.
Greek Minister of Development, Adonis Georgiades, said that "controls are constant and where there are phenomena of obscenity we deal with them."
