Symi Greece is one of the most picturesque and charming islands of the Dodecanese island chain.
The most impressive spot on the island is hands down Symi port. The hill above the port is packed with crayon-like mansions which emit a fairytale-like charm. Not to mention that any corner of the town boasts a magnificent view of the Aegean Sea. The unique atmosphere of the port will bewitch you!
The main town of Symi, which is divided into two settlements: Gialos and Chorio, is the island’s center of activities. It stands out for its colorful mansions, peaceful atmosphere, and photogenic setting. Not to mention that every corner of the town boasts an amazing view of the Aegean Sea!
If you want to escape the summer heat after the town’s exploration, head to Symi beaches. Although they aren’t big, they are clean and laid-back. If on the other side you are an adventure lover, you’ll be happy to know that a hike around the island will bring you to many cute chapels and photogenic spots. Actually, on the southern part of the island, you’ll find the renowned Panormitis monastery, which is worth visiting.
