Chrysi is a remote island south of Crete. (Image: GETTY) Despite its size, the small island of Chrysi has loads to offer to those who venture on it. Also known as Chrissi, but dubbed by Greeks "Gaidouronisi", which means donkey island, Chrysi is uninhabited and can only be reached by sea from either Ierapetra or Myrtos.
