Kastellorizo is the smallest inhabited island of the Dodecanese, tucked into the far eastern corner of the Aegean just a stone's throw from Kas on Turkey's Lycian coast. Despite its tiny size, the island carries an outsized cultural legacy - from Lycian rock tombs to a once-thriving maritime trading hub.
The island is best known for its spectacular Blue Grotto, a sea cave that glows with an ethereal blue light, and its beautifully restored neoclassical mansions lining the crescent-shaped harbour. With no cars and virtually no crowds, Kastellorizo offers the kind of unhurried Greek island experience that is increasingly rare to find. Explore more in our Kastellorizo island guide.
