A shortcut, not a secret
Why buy a map when Google is free?
Ikaria is not an island you can plan from a top ten list. Things are spread out, some places barely appear online, and the best evenings happen in small villages. This is a focused list of 36 places worth your time, saved and ready on your phone.
