The island cluster that is northwest of the island of Chios encompasses 7 islets,
the largest of which is called Psara. The smaller islets include
Antipsara, Kato Nisi, Aye Nikolaki, Daskalio, Prasonisi and Nisopoula.
This island cluster is approximately 48 nautical miles north west
of the island of Chios.
Psara, in addition to the 6 islets, exhibits a rocky terrain filled with hills
and mountains. The highest mountain on the island is Prophitis Ilias (Ilias the
Prophet) that extends 640 meters. This rocky terrain is inadequate for cultivation,
thus the 500 inhabitants of the island were forced to turn to maritime activities
for income.
These islands offer peace and tranquility, rest and relaxation to their visitors.
There are no cars or motorbikes to disturb the peace and the inhabitants of the
island extend their heartfelt warmth and genuine hospitality to visitors.
