Kos
Kos is the second-largest island in the Dodecanese — birthplace of Hippocrates, the founder of modern medicine, and home to one of the best-preserved ancient sites in the Aegean. The Asklepieion, a 4th-century-BC healing sanctuary, sits on a hillside above Kos Town with views back across to the Turkish coast. Inside the town, a Hellenistic agora and the Castle of the Knights line the harbour, and a famously old plane tree in the square is said to be where Hippocrates taught. The island's south coast holds long sandy beaches — Paradise, Banana, Camel — best reached by boat. Kos is a 45-minute sail from Bodrum, an hour from Kalymnos. Season runs April through October.
Nisyros
Nisyros is one of the few inhabited Greek islands with an active volcano — and the only one where you can walk down into the crater. The Stefanos caldera, 4 kilometres wide and 260 metres deep, last erupted in 1888; today the floor still steams with sulphurous fumaroles you can stand next to. The harbour town of Mandraki stacks whitewashed houses against a medieval Knights of St John fortress, and the cliff-top village of Nikia looks straight down into the volcano. Anchorages along the coast hold dramatic black-sand beaches formed from cooled lava. Nisyros is 90 minutes from Kos by sail. Season runs May through October.
Kalymnos
Kalymnos is the climbing world's island — a Dodecanese rock fortress with over 3,000 sport-climbing routes bolted into the limestone cliffs that ring the coast. Even non-climbers come for the views: the deep fjord at Vathy cuts inland past orange groves, the harbour at Pothia lines up neoclassical buildings against the hills, and the sea caves on the western coast open straight from the water. Boats anchor in Vathy, Emporios, or Telendos islet — the last a 10-minute crossing from Pothia with empty beaches. The island's sponge-diving heritage still shows in the museum at Pothia. Kalymnos is 90 minutes from Kos and 4 hours from Patmos. Season runs April through October.
Leros
Leros is the quiet Dodecanese island that few tourists reach by air — but the natural harbour of Lakki is one of the largest in the Mediterranean and made the island a strategic Italian naval base in the 1930s. The harbour's edges still hold the country's best collection of Italian rationalist architecture — wide colonnaded streets, art-deco facades, and a former officer's mess that's now a school. Anchorages around the coast — Pandeli, Vromolithos, Xirokampos — face quiet beaches and small tavernas. Leros is 2 hours from Kos, an hour from Patmos. Season runs April through October.
Patmos
Patmos is the most sacred of the Dodecanese — the island where Saint John received the visions of the Book of Revelation in 95 AD, and where the cave that sheltered him still draws Orthodox pilgrims from around the world. The Monastery of Saint John sits at the top of the hill above Skala harbour, a Byzantine-walled fortress that's been continuously inhabited by monks since 1088. The white-marble cobbled streets of Chora winding up to the monastery hold sea-view tavernas and centuries-old captain's mansions. The coast holds quiet bays at Psili Ammos, Lambi, and Petra. Patmos is 4 hours from Kos, an hour from Leros. Season runs May through October.
Leipsoi
Leipsoi — sometimes spelled Lipsi — is a cluster of small islands just north of Patmos, with a population of around 800 split across one main village and a handful of farming hamlets. The harbour at Leipsoi Town handles charter boats easily, with three or four tavernas around the quay serving the day's catch. The coast has empty beaches reachable on foot or dinghy: Platys Gialos, Hochlakoura, and the bay at Kampos. The island feels untouched in a way that's rare in the Aegean — no big hotels, no roads outside the village. Leipsoi is 30 minutes from Patmos by sail. Season runs May through October.
Pserimos
Pserimos is the small Dodecanese islet between Kos and Kalymnos — fewer than 100 year-round residents, one village, no airport, no real road. The main bay holds a long sandy beach with shallow turquoise water and 4-5 tavernas built into the slope behind it, all run by extended family. The island raises goats that wander freely on the hills; the catch of the day comes from boats anchored 50 metres off the beach. There's nothing else to do here — and that's the appeal. Pserimos is 45 minutes from Kos and 30 minutes from Kalymnos. Season runs May through October.
