The Dodecanese fire map
Rhodes, Kos, Kalymnos, Karpathos, Patmos and Symi. Rhodes and Karpathos carry real forest; the smaller islands are largely scrub.
13 satellite fire detections inside The Dodecanese in the latest NASA FIRMS pass (2026-08-15 to 2026-08-16). A detection is heat seen from orbit; it is not by itself a reported fire, and not every detection becomes one.

Where this comes from
Fire locations are NASA FIRMS satellite detections. Status for each area is set from what the named authority has published, never from satellite data alone — see how this site works.
If you are travelling
Conditions change hourly during a fire. The authorities above are always right where this page and they disagree, and in danger anywhere in the European Union the emergency number is 112.
