Agios Ioannis Prodromos Church

The island of Folegandros is ideal for a peaceful vacation with an authentic atmosphere and hiking. Be sure not to miss picturesque Chora, and perhaps you will even find the entrance to the medieval quarter of Kastro. Or watch the sunset and enjoy the breathtaking view from the Panagia church.

The best time to visit Folegandros is from June to September.

If you want to explore the entire island of Folegandros, we recommend spending at least 1 weeks here.

Probably the best way to get to Folegandros is to fly to Athens, then take a domestic flight to Milos and from there a ferry to Folegandros. Alternatively, fly directly to Santorini and continue by ferry to Folegandros.

The most beautiful beaches on Folegandros include Livadaki, Katergo, Agios Nikolaos, Angali, and Galifos.

Don't hesitate to visit any tavern serving traditional Greek cuisine. You can usually easily recognize them by the typical traditional Greek wooden chairs. You can find them in towns, villages, and even on beaches. If you like fresh fish, look for fish taverns in the harbors.
