More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the quay in Adamas as the island's white-and-ochre cliffs come into focus, and the Carmen rocks gently alongside the port. The Aegean smells of salt and sun; gulls circulate like unpaid tour guides while the boat motors west toward multicolored headlands and the cavernous silhouettes of Kleftiko.
