Navtilos is a small islet of the Sea of Crete.[1] The islet is located about 30 km southeast of the port of Kapsali on the island of Kythira, and 6 km northwest of the northern tip of Antikythira.
It is 300 yards long in an east and west direction and 10 feet high. From a distance this rock has the appearance of scattered rocks, as it is very jagged. Sunken rocks lie eastward and westward of the above-water part, giving the entire danger a length of 800 yards. The water about 100 yards off this danger is deep.[1]
