Main image

Schiza is a small, uninhabited Greek islet in the Peloponnese region of southern Greece. It is a natural, rocky island with no settlement.

A rugged, largely natural shoreline with no tourist infrastructure or services. The islet is primarily of interest to private boaters, naturalists and people doing coastal navigation or island-hopping.

There is no recorded modern settlement on Schiza and it does not have a history of permanent habitation in recent times; it has served as part of the regional archipelago and coastal geography of the Peloponnese.

Situated off the southwestern coast of the Peloponnese in the Ionian/West Greek maritime area, reachable only by boat from the nearest mainland ports and harbors along the Peloponnese coast.

  • Access and facilities: No permanent population and no visitor facilities on the islet, so access is by private boat only.
