Greek islands you can’t live on

Greek islands you can’t live on are typically uninhabited or extremely remote locations across Greece, where the absence of infrastructure, utilities, and permanent services makes long-term residence impractical or impossible. These islands often lack fresh water, electricity, housing, and transport links, existing more as natural or protected spaces than functioning communities.
