Rhodos
Just 70 kilometers southeast of Kos is the fourth largest island of Greece Rhodes, which is also the main island of the Dodecanese archipelago in the southeast Aegean Sea. About half of the population of Rhodes lives in the capital of the same name, which is located on the northeastern tip of the island and with its approximately 60,000 inhabitants forms the tourist center. Right at the entrance to the port, you will be greeted by the statues of Elafos and Elafina, perched on pillars. The jumping deer Elafos is the heraldic animal of the island. Rhodes is also known for its interesting archaeological sites.
The ferry port on the island of Rhodes offers connections to the other Greek islands of Agathonisi, Chalki, Amorgos, Samos, Karpathos, Nisyros, Kalymnos, Kos, Thira, Ikaria, Milos, Lipsi, Fournoi, Crete, Patmos, Syros, Astypalea, Tilos, Symi, Arki, Kasos, Leros, Kastelorizo and Anafi, as well as to the ferry port of Piraeus on the Greek mainland.

Leros
Vacation without the sometimes perceived as annoying tourist boom you can make and enjoy on Leros. On the 75 km² island in the southern Aegean Sea live less than 10,000 inhabitants. The small, one could say idyllic village of Panteli is considered the most beautiful place on the island. Bathing at Panteli Beach is possible in the small bay at any time of the year. The Agios Isidoros Chapel is the insider tip on an island hike, as well as the crab church of Xirokambos in the south of the island. A day trip with the pirate ship to the small island of Arki is a must for your vacation on Leros. The excursion boat departs from Agia Marina in the morning and heads for different destinations every weekday.
