Overview

Poros is only 2 hours and 30 minutes from Athens. It’s a place of great beauty!As you stroll along the streets you will be impressed by the neoclassical style of most buildings. The clock tower of Poros is the island’s landmark, located on the hilltop, and surrounded by prickly pear trees and pine trees. This spot offers an amazing view of the harbour, the opposite shores of the Peloponnese, and the Lemon tree forest. The clock stands out, from whichever location you look at it; it is truly the town gem! Start your cultural trip with a visit to the Archaeological Museum on Koryzi Square; you will see finds that date as far back as the Mycenaean Period (circa 1700 - 1100 BC) and up to the Roman times. Poros also is the ideal destination for watersports and activities such as swimming.

Corinth Canal

One of the most important projects of modern Greece, which played a catalytic role for the Mediterranean trade, the canal of the Isthmus of Corinth, has constituted an inspiration for centuries and was completed … 25 centuries after the conception of its idea. The “Afneios Corinth” since the ancient times was one of the most important cities of the then known world, but also of modern Greece. Its geographical position has highlighted it to a great Navy, Commerce and Cultural Centre.

Galatas

Galatas is a coastal town in the prefecture of Attica, It is located directly opposite Poros, from which it is separated by a narrow strait. There are regular ferry routes to Poros from Galata. The route from Athens to Galata is around 160 km (expected duration approx. 2 hours and 30′) and from there ferries depart every half hour (every exactly and every half hour) all year round. The journey Galatas – Poros is 5′ and the cost is 4€ for person and car together. From Galata you can also cross to Poros with one of the boats (cost 1€/person and 5' trip duration, only for persons) which leave continuously.

Poros

Its beauty has been praised by popular poets and prose writers, such as Georgios Seferis, Ioulia Dragoumi and the American writer Henry Miller. Pinewoods cover the island’s hills, and go all the way to the sandy beaches. The Poros Strait, and the seaside area of Galata with its pine, olive, and lemon groves surround the picturesque Poros town, where beautiful neoclassical buildings grace the seafront; it’s a place of great beauty!
