Symi is one of the prettiest places to visit during on Greek Islands or combined Greek islands and Turkish Coast itinerary. Approaching the harbour at sunset is a special experience: the facades of neo-classical style houses painted in pastel shades become strikingly beautiful in the golden glow of the setting sun. Symi offers great restaurants and a vast array of shops -- and not to be missed are the picture-perfect bays along the eastern side of the island.
