Andikeros ( Greek Αντίκερος [ andikʲɛrɔs ] ( f. Sg. )), In distinction to the sister island Drima (Άνω Αντικέρι ((Kato Andikeri) Ano Andikeri f. Sg. ), Upper-Andikeros') is an uninhabited Greek island in the Aegean Sea , which belongs to the Lesser Cyclades and forms the Andikeria (Αντικέρια ( n. Pl. )) Archipelago with the neighboring island to the west . Andikeros is administered by the municipality of Amorgos in the South Aegean region (Περιφέρεια Νότιου Αιγαίου).
The sparsely vegetated island is 3.5 km south of Keros and 8 km northwest of Amorgos . The flat island, separated only by a 200 m wide and 4 m deep strait from the neighboring island of Drima , is now only used as pasture for semi-wild goats. The island, which is poor in beaches, can only be reached by kaíki boats from Pano Koufonisi .
