NBA legend Magic Johnson and Samuel Jackson on their Greek summer “Odyssey” (photos)

The star and his famous party visited Skorpios in Lefkada

Newsroom July 12 02:09

NBA legend Magic Johnson and his group of celebrity friends went on a Greek island-hopping adventure this summer, sharing their moments on social media. The famous basketball player is travelling all over Greece, advertising the Greek landscapes and in every way deifying the Greek summer and the beauties of our country.

As it was revealed almost by chance, on Sunday night Magic Johnson was in Zakynthos where he enjoyed fish at the well-known Taverna ‘Komis’, a place that hits almost the perfect score in the rating of people who have dined there. Along with Magic, in Zakynthos were the famous Hollywood actor Samuel Jackson and the well-known singer LL COOl J – rap legend – entrepreneur, and actor.

“We enjoyed a beautiful dinner last night at Komis Fish Tavern in Zakynthos, Greece with our friends Richard and Tina Lawson, Simone and Todd Smith, LaTanya and Sam Jackson, and Vicki and John Palmer”

The basketball legend, following his sailing into the turquoise waters of the Ionian, also visited the island of Kefalonia, where he enjoyed his lunch at a well-known tavern in Fiskardo. The group of stars was snapped by a would-be “paparazzi”.

The star and his famous party visited Skorpios in Lefkada and enjoyed the beauties of the island. He captured the moment with an Instagram Story, writing: “I loved Skorpios.”

A few days ago, MJ visited Athens and enjoyed the view of the capital city from the Acropolis, while referring to this experience and commented on it as ” special “. Since then he has sailed all over the Greek islands and doesn’t stop posting pictures, together with his famous friends.

First, he visited Mykonos, then his small Odyssey took him to Santorini, where he posed with the blue dome of the Three Bells of Fira and the volcano in the background. “Cookie and I at the famous Three Bells Church of Fira, in beautiful Santorini! Behind us you can see a volcano,” he wrote in the caption of his post.
