A cluster of twelve islands in the southeastern edge of the Aegean, jewels of all sizes decorating the big blue sea: the Dodecanese form a bridge between Europe and the East and everywhere you’ll see traces of peoples and cultures that made their mark over the centuries: Ionians, Romans, Byzantines, Venetians, Ottomans, and Italians. Each island has a character all its own and all offer a plethora of opportunities for relaxation, sightseeing, adventures, and gastronomical pleasure – with a backdrop of stunningly beautiful beaches.
Whether traveling with your children, your sweetheart or a big group of friends, you’ll find the island that’s right for you. Some are extremely popular, like Rhodes and Kos, and others have a virgin charm, like Kalymnos, Symi, volcanic Nisyros, Kastelorizo, Kasos, Karpathos, Astypalea, Halki, and Lipsi. And then there’s Patmos, a sui generis destination, famous as the place St. John wrote the Book of Revelation, the ‘Jerusalem of the Aegean’. Set sail for the Dodecanese and discover a mix of beachside magic and a colorful potpourri of cultures. They will never cease to amaze you. Your holidays here will be a montage of beautiful imagery and exciting, unforgettable experiences.
