Greece’s most remote island is just 800m from the Turkish coast but Kastelorizo (also known as Megisti) brims with Greek history and tradition.Its little harbour is lit up by the vivid colours of two-storeyed houses (yet another small island with a big history) and the nearby Kastello Rosso,the russet-coloured castle built by the Knights of St John, after which the island was named.
A blend of urban energy, natural beauty, and coastal lifestyle makes these ten destinations some of the most beautiful coastal cities in the world, each a unique escape by the sea.
