Astypalea belongs to the Dodecanese island group in the south eastern part of the Aegean Sea. In terms of ferry services within Greece, Astypalea, like a lot of Greek island ferry ports is connected to the mainland port of Piraeus (Athens) as well as some of the neighbouring islands in the Dodecanese. The shape of the island resembles an hourglass, narrowing in the middle to a tiny 10 metre strip which connects the two sections.
Arki’s picturesque harbour, named ‘Port Augusta’, is situated at the head of an inlet on the southwest coast. The port is a popular yachter’s destination, with the surrounding islets offering fantastic island-hopping opportunities. With under 50 inhabitants, a small supermarket and a few ancient ruins, Arki provides an escape from the busier Greek islands. Due to the port’s size, there is only one journey a week provided to each of the nearby Dodecanese Islands.
