TICKETING AND SHIPPING IN KASTELLORIZO
Papoutsis travel & shipping agency

Kastellorizo or Megisti, is the
Aegean's easternmost island. It is a tiny but very
beautiful island of the Dodecanesse consisting of a
circular port of about 5 0 inhabited houses.
Even though the island has very
few inhabitants, they are all very hospitable and
wait on the port to welcome the tourist people. KastellorIzo is a rocky island
whose terrain is sharply divided into mountains, hills,
plateaus, valleys, stream-beds - and only one real harbor,
with two smaller bays next to it. The village in which the
island's people lived was very densely built.
It consisted of seven different
quarters : Mouragio, Kaoulaki, (or Pountos),
Horafia, Kavos, MIli, Palamferia and
Madraki, where the boat yard was.
The village stands on the
northeast side of the island. Kavos seems to have
been the first part of the village to be built.
At Niftis there were market gardens and vineyards.
Nearby, at Nefatsi, was the modern cemetery.
The Municipal Market is a recent
building, having been constructed under the Italian
occupation.
