The Greek island of Symi is one of the Dodecanese Islands and is located around 40 km to the north west of the island of Rhodes and 420 km from the Port of Piraeus. Symi's closest neighbours are the Datca and Bozburun peninsulars of Mugla Province in Turkey. The island's terrain is mainly mountainous and its coastline is made up of either beaches and secluded coves, or rocky cliffs. Located on the north east coast of the island is its main town, also called Symi. The lower town is the area around the harbour, called Yialos, and the upper town is called Horio or Ano Symi. There isn't a great deal to see or do on the island, and this is perhaps where its charm is. Apart from lazing on the beach or swimming in its crystal clear waters the Monastery of the Archangel Panormitis, which is an early 18th century Greek Orthodox monastery built on the coast in the south west of the country, is worth visiting. Overlooking Ano Symi is the Kastro which was built by the Knights of St. John as an expansion of a Byzantine castle on the same site. Quite a bit of the structure remains and there are also signs of an ancient citadel on which two later castles were built.
The small Greek island of Agathonisi is one of the most northerly of the Dodecanese islands. The island's population is only around 200 and its land area is only around 14 sq. km and has a coast line of about 32 km. There are three main towns on the island, Aghios Georgios, Megalo and Mikro Chorio and are all well known for the lovely traditional architecture of there houses and for their beautiful gardens. Along with its neighbouring islands, Agathonisi has an important ecosystem that is home to many rare bird species and is part of a protected area.
Ferries from the island depart to destinations including Patmos, Leros, Leipsoi, Samos and Chios. Crossing times vary depending on destination, route and whether or not a conventional ferry or high speed ferry is taken. Some destinations can take up to 11 hours to reach from Agathonisi.
