Kos Island is ideally situated for a variety of excursions. There are numerous ways to travel to surrounding islands and Turkey which is only half an hour's boat ride away. So why not take a day trip to Rhodes, Agathonisi, Arki, Astipalea, Kalimnos, Karpathos, Kasos, kastelorizo, Lipsi, Leros, Patmos, Simi, Tilos, Chalki, Pserimos and even Samos. The list is endless, or while you're here, discover Kos by joining an organised Island tour or a Jeep Safari. Probably the most popular form of travel are the hydrofoils or the Flying Dolphins as they're affectionately known. Ferry boats are another way or one of the small sailing ships if you're in a romantic mood. Kos and the surrounding islands have so much to offer that an excursion is an absolute must!
