3Thymena

Named after the thyme plants that blossom on its hills, Thymena is the second-largest island in the Fourni archipelago. Sparsely populated, it was one of the islands that benefitted from the government’s move to fully ‘liberate’ islands with less than 1,000 inhabitants from COVID-19.

Thymena isn’t as green as many of its counterparts but boasts a small, beautiful monastery atop one of its hills.
