Situated at the extreme south-east of the Cyclades archipelago, Anafi Island is the furthest from Athens. Its surface area is 37.5 km2. It is 582 meters high and has 273 inhabitants. It is also one of the wildest islands of the Archipelago. 

Anafi is located to the east of Santorini and about 1 and a half hours by boat. The island has remained calm and continues to be an ideal place for relaxation. The legend says that the island would have been created by Apollo so that the Argonauts can rest on the way of the Golden Fleece.

With the exception of the port of Agios Nikolaos, consisting of a few houses, Chora is the only village on the island. It is a typically Cycladic village with white houses overlooking the sea. The island is particularly renowned for its beautiful beaches as well as for its trails which allow to explore the greater part of the island and to discover its chapels and monasteries and which are as many hiking destinations. The inhabitants are very welcoming to visitors.
