Fournoi

Fournoi Korseon or Fournoi Ikarias (Greek: Φούρνοι), more commonly simply Fournoi, is a complex or archipelago of small Greek islands that lie between Ikaria, Samos and Patmos in Ikaria regional unit, North Aegean region. The two largest islands of the complex, the main isle of Fournoi and the isle of Thymaina, are inhabited, as is Agios Minas Island to the east. On the main isle Fournoi (town) is the largest settlement and then Chrysomilia in the north the second largest . Fournoi (town) proper is the main ferry harbour, with ferries also landing on Thymaina. The archipelago is famous for being a hub of Ancient World, which resulted in 53 shipwrecks found in the area until 2017. Another five shipwrecks were found in 2018, raising the total number to 58. Those wrecks date back from 4th century BC to 19th century AD.

Fourni Korseon is a complex of tiny islands, islets and rocks in the Eastern Aegean. Fourni Island is the largest of all, located in the center of the complex. 

Despite the fact that Fourni is a very beautiful island with many lovely coves and emerald waters, the island remains off the beaten track.

Travel Instructions

Getting Around

HOW TO GET AROUND FOURNI | Car Rental, Scooter / ATV / Bike, Hiking

Fourni is a very small island. There is only one town and a few beaches to discover, so a car is not really needed. The majority of the tourists make their way on foot since most things are within walking distance. You can rent a car, scooter or bicycle but the road network is small. Most beaches and the neighboring island of Thymena, are served by caiques in the summer, departing from the main port. Fourni is also a good place for hiking. Another option is to hire a small boat to explore the more remote beaches.
