DODECANESE ISLANDS
The Dodecanese (“Twelve Islands” or “Dodekanes”) is the most southerly group of islands in the Southern Sporades, lying off the southwest coast of Asia Minor. It includes 14 larger islands together with some 40 smaller islets and rocks. With the exception of Rhodes, which belongs culturally to Greece but geologically to the mainland of Anatolia, the islands are arid and largely barren. Their inhabitants live by farming, sponge fishing (the Dodecanese forms the base of the Greek sponge-fishing fleet), and increasingly, tourism. Windsurfing, water-skiing, snorkelling, diving and swimming are popular activities in the Dodecanese.
KOS
Home to the Greek father of medicine Hypocrites, Kos is an island full of contrasts, with a mix of both Greek and Turkish architecture and culture. Rich in history, Kos is home to many ancient ruins, including Asklipion, a healing centre and medical school that followed the teachings of Hypocrites. Away from the lively main town you will find many secluded beaches and quaint villages. Kos is a part of the Dodecanese island group and an ideal gateway for excursions to other islands or Turkey. An exciting possible excursion is the 4-hour hydrofoil to Rhodes. According to ancient mythology, the sun god Helios chose Rhodes as his bride and bestowed light, warmth and vegetation on her. The blessing seems to have paid off and Rhodes is one of the most pleasant islands to visit. The old town with its massive walls is one of the finest surviving examples of medieval fortification. Don't miss the Acropolis of Lindos, Rhodes’ most important ancient city.
PLEASE NOTE that this itinerary may need to change due to inclement weather conditions. This decision will be made solely at your skipper's discretion, based on the safety of the group and the yacht.
