Dragonada is an uninhabited small island that belongs to the Dionysades island complex of the prefecture of Lasithi in eastern Crete.

The island is situated 10 miles off the coast of Sitia, in the middle of the Dionysades complex. It is the only island of the Dionysades that has plant growth.

Apparently, Dragonada was settled in ancient times as remnants of ancient culture have been found as well as tombstones of the early Christian era. The municipality of Sitia has been considering recently to develop the island in some form or another.
