The Dodecanese
islands are located south of Samos and Fourni, east of the Cyclades,
west of the coast of Turkey, and northeast of Crete.
An enchanted world where the sun paints pictures, the mild winters and
refreshing summers give the Dodecanese one of the healthiest climates in
the Mediterranean. The islands of theDodecanese (Rhodes,
Kos, Simi, Tilos, Astipalaia, Nissiros, Kalymnos, Kassos, Leros, Halki,
Kastelorizo, Patmos, Lipsi, Karpathos) are engaged in a beauty contest
with no clear winner. At the crossroads of three continents the Dodecanese
are a powerful pole of attraction for visitors who come to them to enjoy
the healthy climate, the sun, and the sparkling clear sea. From the
most cosmopolitan cities to laid back villages to quiet shores, the choices
for holiday pleasures are many and varied.
