The Telegraph: Least-populated Greek islands, fascinating places (photos)

We all know Santorini, Mykonos and Crete, but the Telegraph decided to cast the spotlight on Greece's least populated Greek islands that are unpopular and where "transport may well be a donkey rather than a taxi or bus."

Castellorizo, a cluster of brightly-colored villas
The island has a population of just 492 people and lies 800 meters from the Turkish coast.

Halki, home to a monastery and church
West of Rhodes, the rugged island has a population of 478 people.

Psara, a slightly mournful island
Currently 458 people live here. When Turks invaded in 1824, 3,000 of the 30,000-strong population escaped. The others built new homes on the remote hilltops.

Koufonissia, "whitewashed" Cycladic cottages and vanilla-hued sand beaches
Just 400 people live at Ano (upper) and Kato (lower) Koufonissi. Those at Ano Koufonissi lived without electricity until 1980.

Sikinos, home of the monastery of the "life-giving fountain"
Just 273 people inhabit this island between the hotspots of Ios and Folegandros, and yet it has some of the most attractive scenery in the Cyclades. The article pinpoints the 15th-century blue-domed Panayia Pantanassa monastery.

Anafi, a sparse place with glorious seclusion
The only settlement is Hora where 271 people live. Built on volcanic rock from neighboring Santorini's eruptions, Anafi is a sparse place.

Schinoussa, between titchy Iraklia and Koufonissia, near Naxos
Just 225 people live here. It offers windmills, churches and beaches.

Agathonissi, meaning "pure island"
Only 185 people live in this northernmost island of the Dodecanessian...
