Itinerary
Start hiking on the island’s peripheral road. We head to the first ridge of the island where the chapel of Agioi Anargiri is located and have a magnificent view of the Saronic Gulf and the canal
that separates Poros with Galatas. We continue hiking on the ridge to the second
point where there is a stone windmill from the Turkish occupation.
Then we start descending through the alleys of the traditional village of Poros and
stop at a traditional courtyard where we serve you a complimentary local
lemonade. We continue to our last stop, on the island’s trademark – the watch. We
end by going down to the old port of Poros, where you have some free time before
taking the ferry back to Galatas where your driver will be waiting for you. You will
have around 2 hours of free time to take a swim or have a meal. If you want to stop
at Epidaurus you will have to spend 1-hour free time in Poros and then head to
Epidaurus for a 1 hour stop.
