There is only a single highway the D120 that runs the length of the island connecting all the villages to the ferry port at Sobra. The island has previously been concurred by both the Greeks and the Romans and each has left their mark on the land, part of the charm of this island is that almost everywhere you look there are ruins to be seen.
