Today Symi lives by tourism: in the summer the day-trips from Rhodes can seem to engulf the town, but in the evenings and early mornings, the island regains its tranquillity and charm. A visit to Symi will ideally make time for three things: a leisurely exploration of the harbour and old town; a trip into the mountainous interior; and a boat ride around the deeply indented coast. This is a chapter from Blue Guide Greece the Aegean Islands: what to see, where to stay and eat, history, archaeology, art, culture, leisure. With superb, award-winning maps. Written and edited by a team of three experts: historian, art historian and archaeologist, two of whom lead cultural tours in Greece. "Blue Guides still hold the cultural high ground" Sunday Times. |
