Fournoi Korseon is located east of the north Aegean, between Samos and Ikaria. Fournoi is part of a group of three islands, the others being Thymaina and Agios Minas. The island has an area of 31 km² and about 1470 inhabitants (2001), most of whom are fishermen, although during the summer season they are also occupied in tourist activities, specialised in making tourists feel welcome. The whole island smells good food! Some of the inhabitants continue the know-how of making local products like milk, cheese, honey and soft drinks. The beauty of countless natural fjords creates an image that the visitor will always carry in his mind and soul.
