Kastelorizo or Megisti, is the Aegean's easternmost island. It is
a tiny but very beautiful island of the Dodecanese consisting of a
circular port of about 50 inhabited houses. Even though the island
has very few inhabitants, they are all very hospitable and wait on
the port to welcome the tourists.
The island's only settlement is Megisti, otherwise known as
Kastellorizo, on the northeast coast. The gracious two-storey
neo-classical houses with their brightly painted doors and windows,
wooden balconies and tile roofs on the waterfront as well as the
majestic domes of the churches testify to the island's former
prosperity.
On this island you will enjoy good local cuisine, the sea and a good
warm climate away from the noise of "civilisation".
The little islands of Ro and Strongili and the "Fokiali blue
cave" are places that you should visit (it can be visited only by
boat). |
