Compact Greek island in the northern Dodecanese, Leipsoi sits between Patmos and Leros and is well connected by ferry from Piraeus. The main island anchors a cluster of some 30 islands and islets, most uninhabited, with a compact village centre holding cafés, restaurants, and an unusual number of churches for its size. Vineyards grow nearby, and the wider region is ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites.
