uninhabited island of 56 ha opposite the port of Milina. Access by rental boat. Beach and abandoned monastery.
This long, narrow little island of 56 ha (Αλατάς) is a bird reserve with thousands of olive trees and reptiles (mainly lizards). It owes its name to the ancient Milina salt flats. In the central part is a beach (west coast) and the fortified monastery of Agii Saranda (18th century), abandoned since 2001. In 1823, Greek insurgents from Macedonia occupied the monastery and repelled an Ottoman raid. The island is currently the subject of a project to create a huge hotel complex with a thousand beds.
