Koufonisia Bay

✨ Hidden gem

This anchorage sits in the sheltered waters of Koufonisia, one of the lesser-known gems of the Cyclades, tucked between the twin islands of Ano and Kato Koufonisi. You can drop anchor here and easily reach the characteristically whitewashed main village on foot, along with some of the most strikingly turquoise shallow coves in the entire Aegean. It's a laid-back, unhurried spot that draws you into the slow rhythm of one of Greece's smallest but most charming inhabited island communities.
