About Donousa
Donousa is the northernmost of the Small Cyclades, a tiny cluster of islands between Naxos and Amorgos, and one of the least populated. The small port village of Stavros has only a handful of rooms and tavernas, and the real draw is sandy bays like Kedros and Livadi.
Without real nightlife and with limited infrastructure, Donousa suits travelers wanting to unplug rather than sightsee.
