Peristera (Greek: Περιστέρα, feminine form of pigeon), also Aspro, locally Xero (meaning dry) is a Greek island in the Sporades. It is administratively part of the municipality of Alonissos and is also directly east of the island of Alonissos. The 1991 census read three inhabitants making it the one of the smallest municipal district in the Northern Sporades. The tiny settlement became abandoned in the mid to late-1990s and now has nothing.
