Symi Essentials

Symi is characterized by the neoclassical architecture of Gialos harbor, where colorful mansions rise steeply from the waterfront. This selection highlights the island's historical landmarks, including the 14th-century castle built by the Knights of Saint John and the 19th-century Clock Tower. It also features significant spiritual sites like the Panormitis Monastery, a major pilgrimage destination for sailors, and natural coastal spots like the pebbled Nanou Beach, accessible primarily by boat.
