10Astypalaia – The Butterfly of the Aegean


Astypalaia combines the charm of the Cyclades with the serenity of the Dodecanese. Its whitewashed houses climb up to a Venetian castle, while its butterfly-shaped coastline invites peaceful walks.

In the off season, you can wander the cobblestone alleys of Chora almost entirely alone and discover hidden coves where the only sound is the waves. The island’s slower pace in autumn makes it ideal for travelers seeking tranquility and a taste of unspoiled Greece.
