It is also largely a day trip destination from Rhodes, so at night the streets are calm and quiet and a joy to walk.
There is a lot of space on Symi, great for aimless wandering throughout the island to empty beautiful panoramic viewpoints or remote monasteries set far from any towns. What makes this island more interesting than others? It is a spectacular first impression, and the island continues to follow up on that impression with overwhelmingly beautiful experiences that really reinforce the first thought. Like so many tiny beautiful Greek islands, the first impression of Symi is arriving at a charming small town built into a beautiful, protected harbour, with high mountains and rugged landscapes surrounding it on every side. What catches the eye when you first arrive on the island? If you want to reach the island in a shorter time, choose Rhodes or Kos as landing airport, as the ferry transfer from Athens lasts up to 14 hours. The island has no airport therefore, you will need to fly to Athens, Rhodes or Kos and then take a ferry to the island. The main town is located on the northeast coast of the island and has the same name as the island. The island is not as big as it has an area of 65,754 square kilometres. It is remarkably close to Turkey and from the coast, you can see the neighbouring country. It is part of the Dodecanese island chain and is not far from Rhodes – just 41km. The first island we are going to talk about is Symi and I have written this article in collaboration with Stephen author of Monk bought lunch, a budget travel blog from Central Asia, the Silk Road, and beyond.
