![Five Private Isles in Greece Hit Market](https://www.ot.gr/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/private-island-1.jpg)
Around 150 private isles and islets are available for sale in Greece at present. These islets are located in both the Ionian and Aegean Seas, and the price for acquiring one can be even more affordable than purchasing a luxury apartment on the Athenian Riviera.

With a size of more than one square hectare, it’s the smallest island on the Greek market, accessible by boat from the nearby coastal town of Itea, merely a kilometer and a half away. There are olive and pine trees on the islet and it features a small sandy beach along its northwestern coast.
