AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Check out this amazing drone video of a tiny uninhabited island off the coast of Cyprus in the Mediterranean Sea, compliments of content creator and pilot Markos_026. Yeronisos is situated just off the western coast of the Cyprus, the third largest island in the Mediterranean. Uninhabited for centuries, the island was recently excavated and was found to be the site of an ancient temple dedicated to the Greek God Apollo. That discovery halted all attempts to further develop the island.

Yeronisos (English: Holy Island) is a small island lying of the west coast of Cyprus, some 18 kilometres north of Paphos. Uninhabited since the 15th century, recent excavations have revealed it once held a sanctuary dedicated to Apollo in the late Hellenistic period. It has an area of 26000 square metres and rises 21.65 metres from sea level. Geologically the island consists of a hard calcarenite crust of Pleistocene marine terraces overlying a soft marl core.
