Symi bakeries & provisions

36° 36.9′ N · 27° 50.2′ E · approximate

Small shops around the Gialos waterfront and in Pedi cover day-to-day needs. Bake day at the Panormitis monastery oven is a treat.

Practical

Position approx: Gialos harbour front. Verified points: Pedi has a grocery near the marina (mySea) and a 'dangerously well-stocked' liquor mini-market in the SW corner of the bay (Sailing Issues). Panormitis has the monks' bakery 'The oven of Panormitis' (Sailing Issues). Symi has limited supermarkets and prices are higher than Rhodes, so do the big shop in Rhodes (see the Rhodes supermarket entry). Gialos shops close in the early afternoon and reopen in the evening, as usual in Greece.
