Located northwest of Rhodes, Tilos is a tiny island with a small population boasting rocky mountains, crystal-clear beaches, and caves adorned with stalactites and stalagmites. Tilos is dotted with various villages like Megalo Horio with narrow alleyways, whitewashed houses, and beautiful churches. It is a green village dedicated to use of renewable energy and eco-friendly practices.
The island is home to medieval castles, a Byzantine monastery, and the abandoned village of Mikro Chorio, declared a cultural monument. It is a paradise for nature lovers and walkers, with a network of trails crisscrossing the island's rugged terrain. Visitors can explore ancient mule tracks, discover hidden beaches, and marvel at panoramic views of the Aegean Sea. As part of Tilos National Park, the island provides a haven for birdwatchers. Over 155 bird species, including Bonelli's eagle and European roller, can be spotted here.
