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.

On island hikes you can explore the monastery of Agios Panteleimonas in the northwest or the church of Archangel Michael. Several hiking routes across the island are well and clearly marked. Tilos has been awarded the EuroNature prize for its efforts in migratory bird conservation in the late 2000s. For you as a nature-interested island tourist, there are many new and interesting things to discover. This includes a boat excursion around Tilos.
