A bit of history
Alonissos is a place of old shipwrecks confirming its geostrategic significance, ancient cities lost in the sea and mythical heroes. In antiquity it was called Ikos and comprised two cities probably located near Kokkinokastro, where the ruins of ancient walls are still to be seen. At different times it was conquered by the Romans, Franks, Venetians and Turks.
How to get there
