| Kassos is a small island, accessible by boat either from Karpathos or Crete, being very close to both these islands. In the summer, the northeastern winds blow from Crete, while rain rarely falls in the winter. Due to the dry climate and the rocky terrain there are not a lot of cultivated areas, yet there are many sheep and goats producing top quality dairy products. The island has a growing tourist business, and the people are always willing to be hospitable and helpful to anybody who decides to visit the island.

| At a distance of 4 nautical miles from Karpathos, Kassos is a part of the same province, with a population of 1500 inhabitants, many of which are sailors, who live in the small community of Fri.
The capital of the island is Fri, built on picturesque Bouka Bay. Its old stone houses - many of them constructed by sea captains - extend on both sides down to the sea. To the east and very near Fri is Emborios, the island's other coastal village. It boasts a beautiful church dedicated to the Nativity of the Virgin.
