Windows Live® Search Results Sporades or Sporádhes, two groups of islands, eastern and south-eastern Greece, in the Aegean Sea. The Northern Sporades, lying chiefly north of Euboea, include Skíros, which is the main island, and Skópelos, Skíathos, and smaller islands; the Southern Sporades, situated off the coast of Turkey, are composed of the Dodecanese islands. Modern geographers are not in complete agreement as to the full extent of the Sporades, and the name is sometimes applied to all the islands of the Aegean Sea except those of the Cyclades proper.
