Psara
In the northern Aegean Sea you will find the small island of Psara. On about 45 km² live only a few hundred locals. The highest elevation, Profitis Ilias reaches 530 meters above sea level - the destination for a day hike on the otherwise quite barren and rocky island. The islanders are mainly fishermen and less farmers. Psara town is the place where all island life takes place. Here you arrive and here you leave your vacation destination. An island hike on a donkey with a local guide - that will bring variety to your otherwise rather unexciting vacation on Psara.
The ferry port on the island of Psara offers connections to the Greek islands of Chios, Lesbos and Oinousses, as well as to the ferry port of Piraeus on the Greek mainland. The routes Psara - Oinousses, Psara - Chios, Psara - Mytilene and Psara - Piraeus are offered here several times a day by the shipping company Hellenic Seaways.
Chios
The East Aegean island is with 845 km² comparable in size to Berlin. There live a good 3.6 million, here plenty of 50,000 inhabitants. On Chios you will find secluded beaches, romantic landscapes and small historic villages. Connoisseurs of the island say that Chios is one of the last undiscovered jewels in the entire Aegean. Worth seeing are the excavations of Emporio, the painted village of Pyrgi with its architecture unique in all of Greece, and the ghost village of Anavatos from the Byzantine period. Chios town with its old town and historic castle is also the island's center as an airport and ferry port.
The ferry port on the island of Chios offers connections to the other Greek islands of Fournoi, Patmos, Ikaria, Leros, Mykonos, Lesbos, Samos, Psara, Syros, Oinousses and Limnos, as well as to the ports of Thessaloniki, Piraeus and Kavala on the Greek mainland. A total of 17 routes are offered here several times a day by the shipping companies Turyol and Hellenic Seaways.
