The island charms visitors with its unspoiled beauty and boasts 3 stunning beaches: Porto, which is also the port as its name implies, Bragini and Fiki.

The towering cypress and olive trees, along with concealed sea caves and vibrant turquoise shores, make Erikoussa an exotic destination combined with the authentic, traditional Greek hospitality.

The name Erikoussa derives from the plant "eríki" (heather), abundant on the island, that paints it purple during its blooming time in October. In some old maps, Erikoussa is often mentioned as Merlera.

The port is a small port and is generally not very busy but is busiest in the summer.
