A little gem that you will remember forever, that will draw you back for further exploration. The capital and main settlement of the island is the picturesque Emporios, with its impressive multicolored houses built almost in the waves, with narrow little streets that encourage you to walk around and discover their every corner. In a few days you will have become friends with everyone, enjoying the delicious food, the endless blue of the sea that blends harmonically with the dry landscape, and the infinite tranquility of the island. Halki is also very picturesque farther inland, as well as ideal for hikers, who can discover the dozens of country churches with their unique religious paintings, the kyfes (traditional small, rustic stone structures), and attractions such as the Burnt Cave and the Castle of the Knights Hospitallers. The beaches, while mainly small, will win you over immediately with crystal clear blue waters that invite endless swims.
