Harbour of Kastelorizo by Udo Hinnerkopf

Kastelorizo, (Megisti), is a small Greek island and municipality located in the southeastern Mediterranean. It lies roughly off the south coast of Turkey, about 68 miles east of Rhodes.
It has gone by several different names in its history, including Italian: Castellorizo, Castelrosso, and Turkish: Meis. The meaning of its current official name Megisti is "Biggest" or "Greatest", but at only 12.000 km2 in area, it is the smallest of the Dodecanese. The name refers to the fact that it is the largest of the small archipelago.
