Sea caves and frontier-island history at Greece's westernmost inhabited point.
Othonoi is the largest Diapontian island, with the harbour of Ammos, white-cliff Aspri Ammos beach and a small community facing the open Adriatic.
Othonoi lies northwest of Corfu, historically tied to sailors, emigration and the sea routes between Greece and Italy. Ammos provides the main harbour and services, while villages and olive groves spread across the interior.
Boat trips reach Aspri Ammos and the sea cave traditionally linked with Calypso. The west coast is exposed and weather changes quickly, reinforcing the island's frontier character.
Practical information
Seasonal ferries connect from Corfu and other Diapontian islands. Carry cash, confirm return sailings and use experienced local skippers for exposed western coves.
