Karpathos is one of the most beautiful islands of Dodecanese. It is located on the southern side of the Aegean Sea, between Rhodes and Crete. Due to the secluded location and the distance from the other Greek islands, Karpathos Island started developing in the last decades. In fact, the southern side of the island has mostly developed in tourism, while the central and the northern side has remained unspoiled and authentic, with picturesque villages away from mass tourism. Karpathos Greece is mostly famous for the exotic beaches with the golden sand and the crystal water. Holidays in Karpathos are ideal for families and trekkers, as the trekking paths that cross the island leads visitors to amazing spots. International windsurfing trials take place near the airport in AFIARTI and the tourism is currently Spring - Autumn but could easily be all year round. It is well served, in the summer months, with international flights from all over Europe and a regular schedule (air & sea) from Athens (1 hour), Crete (40 mins) & Rhodes (20 mins).
