Arki
(Arki)

Arki (Arkioi, Arkoi) is the largest inhabited islet of the Dodecanese island cluster that is named after it. The cluster includes the islets of Marathi, Makronisi, Argelousa, Spolato, Strongyli, Avaptisto, Psathonisi, Kalovolos, Koumaro, Tsouka, Smineronisi, and Tsoukaki. According to the 2011 census, forty-four residents keep the traditions and Greek heritage alive here. It is an ideal place for a little relaxation far from everyday life. The island offers everything you need for an unforgettable vacation: quiet surroundings, a few beautiful beaches with light blue water like swimming pools, and good food (as the place is a port of call for many boats in the summer). There are relatively few rooms for rent, which means you need to plan your stay in advance. Be sure to schedule a visit to neighboring Marathi.
