Lipsi is a tiny Greek Island geographically located between Patmos and Leros, resting on the Aegean Sea. There are several routes departing from Lipsi Port, nearly all of them are fairly short and head to other nearby Greek Islands. Only those who are in need of a truly relaxing, tranquil holiday make their way over to the quiet beaches and crystal waters of Lipsi. The only activity that is required on the island is to climb the hiking trails that lead to some of the beaches, or board the small buses that transport passengers to the more secluded areas. The beaches may be slightly inconvenient to reach, yet there lies their charm; they are all largely untouched by tourism and offer a unique landscape that is unlike any other. The main town offers the usual selection of quaint cafes and souvenir shops, with the occasional hidden gem for keen shoppers. The traditional Greek restaurants generally serve fish fresh from the waters – a popular choice for anyone who enjoys seafood. Most of the restaurants and hotels are located in the town, yet they are within walking distance of all the main beaches, including the beautiful Platis Gialos Beach. Lipsi’s beauty lies in its small size; the island is entirely accessible by foot so tourists will have no problem getting around. Most locals or resort workers will be happy to point visitors in the direction of the port should they need assistance.
Greek islands are all an entirely different entity; some have transformed into a debauched stream of alcohol fuelled nightlife, whereas some exude an air of tranquillity all year long, and there aren’t many islands more tranquil than Agathonisi. Upon reaching the harbour you will notice the lack of attractions, houses or restaurants - the waterfront is particularly sparse, much like the remainder of the island - just how the 200 inhabitants like it. There is little to do on Agathonisi other than swim, read and eat in an idyllic cycle that repeats on an hourly basis, occuring until the Mediterranean moonlight shines down on the quiet island, concluding with some wine or beer at one of the charming tavernas. If that sounds like a desirable prospect, the languid style of Aganthonisi can alleviate any stresses of the modern world.
The island is small and simplistic, so most people choose to traverse on foot.
