5Leros – A Dodecanese Treasure

Part of the Dodecanese island group, Leros is rich in history, naval tradition, and architectural elegance. Unlike its neighbors Rhodes or Kos, Leros has avoided mass tourism and retained its authenticity.

Its capital, Platanos, is charming and dotted with neoclassical mansions, while the coastal village of Agia Marina offers sea-view tavernas and boutique shops. Visitors can explore World War II tunnels, hike to the castle of Panagia, or swim in tranquil coves like Vromolithos and Alinda. Leros is for those who love history, quiet beauty, and cultural depth.
