Why Astypalea?
Astypalea, known as the butterfly-shaped jewel of the Aegean, was once the secret gem of Greece’s island lineup. Today, Astypalea has attracted the interest of even the most savvy travelers with daily flight connection from Athens, Rhodes and Kos. Unlike the popular, bustling Greek islands, Astypalea is characterized by elegance and a tranquil atmosphere, the seclusion of an authentic island, and many amazing beaches for you to choose from. Astypalea offers distinctive landscapes, mouthwatering culinary tradition and rich history and culture – a combination not to be missed!
