Island Full-Day Tour

Poros Island Full-Day Tour

Our excursion to Poros begins at 08:00 am. Our starting point will be your hotel or a predetermined meeting point. A breath away from the capital, the island of Argosaronikos, is waiting for us to discover its beauties. It is considered an ideal destination for those who are looking a few moments of relaxation and tranquility.
The traveler can admire small traditional taverns, small boats, the sea, the sun, the nature, as well as the architecture.

By foot, by bike or by boat, Poros gains the impression with its simplicity.

POINTS OF INTEREST
The City Center
The neoclassical buildings, the alleys and the romantic atmosphere of the place will enchant you. Do you want to go back in time? Visit the Archaeological Museum in Korízi Square to admire findings from the Temple of Poseidon, the ancient Troizina and Methana.

The Beach of Poros
The beach of Poros is ideal for coffee, food, walking and buying traditional products, as well as souvenirs. In the evening you can enjoy your drink by the sea. The sailing boats will be just by you.

Meet us at the Clock Tower
The historic clock rises on the hill, in the center of Poros. Since 1927 has been there, visible from every point in the city. Travelers say that it is undoubtedly the most impressive sight of the island. The view and the sunset are unforgettable. It is definitely worth your time.

The Temple of Poseidon
Among the pine trees in the middle of the island you’ll come across the ruins of a Doric temple dedicated to Poseidon, built in the 6th century BC out of blue limestone. Demosthenes, the orator, arrived here as a fugitive and ended his life by drinking hemlock.

The Russian Naval Base
Admire the buildings that have been listed as historical landmarks and then take a dip right in front of them.

On the island you will have plenty of free time (almost 5 hours) for food, coffee and recreation.  Do not forget to take photos of your favorite sights.

The departure from the island is estimated at 16:00 in the afternoon. Of course we will make a short stop at Epidaurus to buy food or coffee, but also to admire the panoramic view of the bay.

Then we will head back to Athens.
