Highlights of Karpathos
Karpathos is a mountainous island in the southeastern Greece, located between Crete and Rhodes in the Aegean Sea. Known for its dramatic landscapes and traditional villages, the island remains less crowded than many other Greek destinations. As a result, it offers a more authentic and peaceful atmosphere.
The island’s capital, Pigadia (also called Karpathos Town), serves as the main port and tourist center.
The waterfront area features cafes, tavernas, and views of the surrounding hills. Above the town, the ruins of the Acropolis of Arkasa reflect the island’s ancient Greek heritage.
One of the most famous villages is Olympos, located high in the mountains. This village is known for preserving traditional dress, music, and customs. Its white houses and windmills overlook the sea, creating one of the island’s most iconic viewpoints.
Karpathos is also celebrated for its natural beauty. Apella Beach and Kyra Panagia Beach are among the island’s most stunning coastal sites, with clear turquoise waters and rocky backdrops. In addition, the rugged interior offers hiking trails through valleys and pine forests.
Throughout the year, local festivals feature traditional music and dance, especially during religious celebrations. These events highlight the island’s strong cultural identity and connection to its past.
In conclusion, Karpathos blends mountain scenery, unspoiled beaches, and preserved traditions. Through villages such as Olympos and beaches like Apella Beach, the island stands out as one of Greece’s most authentic destinations.
