Koufonisia is a small group of two islands, Pano (Upper) and Kato (Lower) Koufonisi, known for their exotic turquoise waters and incredibly chilled atmosphere. Here, life revolves around the sea and the simple pleasures of island life. Pano Koufonisi is the only inhabited island, where everything is accessible by foot or bicycle, and the Chora is a masterpiece of Cycladic architecture. The island is famous for its natural swimming pools, carved into the rocky coastline, and its pristine beaches that look more like the Caribbean than the Mediterranean. Kato Koufonisi is a wilder, uninhabited paradise visited by small boats for its secluded beaches and a single traditional taverna. For those seeking to escape the modern world and embrace "slow living," Koufonisia is the ultimate destination.
