AGATHONISSI (Island) DODEKANISSOS
The economy is dependent on animal farming, fishing and tourism. Animal
farming is conducted “free range” and therefore produce is small in
quantity but of exceptional quality.
There are some ten professional fishermen earning a living from the
waters surrounding the island although in recent years fish farming has been a
successful addition.
As has occurred with the other Dodecanese
islands, visitors to the island have steadily increased, making tourism a main
source of income for the economic development of the island.
