The island of Pelagos – also known as Kira Panayia – lies to the north east of Alonissos.  Except for some herds of goats and cows, a few horses, a large black bull and a guardian, it's a deserted isle.  A number of sunken Byzantine ships have been discovered off the coast and some pottery fragments have also been found on the island. 

The island is now a nature reserve and forms part of the marine reserve that is there to protect the rare Mediterranean Monk Seal and other marine life.  North Bay is a large landlocked bay on the north side of the island that makes for a tranquil stopover on a North Bay Pelagos yacht charter. You and a few other visiting charterers are likely to have the place to yourself – except for the animals who call this remote place home.
