Highly
representative amongst the tiny Greek islands, Agathonissi remains
even now an unspoilt destination.
The little white-washed houses built according to the local
architecture, the tiny gardens and the kind nature of its inhabitants
come in contrast with the dry climate and land which give the
island of Agathonissi a purely unique character to this lonely-standing
little island.
Agathonissi
is the northest island of the Dodecanese complex of islands, located
NA of the Sporades complex of islands and 8 nautical miles from
the Asia Minor coast.
The
shape of Agathonissi resembles that of a donkey and that is why
some of its names in past times were "Gaidaros" and
"Gaidouronissi" ("gaidaros" for donkey and
in Greek).
With
a surface of about 13 sq kms Agathonissi has 32 kms of crystal-clear
water coastlines! You will find numerous secluded and well protected
bays to enjoy your swim!
We
are sure that its many natural beauties will enchant you...
Agathonissi is an ideal place to visit for those who wish to spend
their holidays away from mass tourism as it is one of the last
"paradise" islands of the Aegean sea.
