Clock Tower

Reviewed By sophiekY7637WE

The view from up there is amazing, especially at sunset, you are able to see mainland Greece as well as Poros and it's harbours from this point. Not too easy to find and the clock tower is currently under construction/ has green netting over it. Would recommend!

Poros Port

Reviewed By CaroleB55

Reminds me of the Greece I found in the 80s. Flower filled streets, cute shops, waterfront tavernas, small beaches with pristine water. You have experienced Greece until you have taken a ferry, hired a scooter or met Greek hospitality. This os one of the best places to experience all.

Askeli Beach

Reviewed By alessandromG7102EB - Rome, Italy

Beautiful beach with crystal clear water, probably the clearest we’ve seen during our stay in Poros. Some rocks at the very beginning, then all sand. It’s one of the closest beach to the city center and the port, therefor you have to go quite early in the morning to find a good place. There are a couple of beach resorts with lots of umbrellas but not much space for free beach. Umbrella with 2 sunbeds for free but you have to take a drink for 3.50€ at least, one of the lowest prices in the island. The beach resorts restaurants have good quality food, even though not as a big choice as the tavernas in the city center, and higher prices.

Poros Beach

Reviewed By Ibo1980 - Orange County, United States

I did not get into the water since I did not have time, but the water was clear and green. It is a very clean and nice beach and I promised myself to stay one night in Poros with my wife next time to enjoy it more. This is one of very rare places that I want to go back

Sheltered bay, calm water and sandy beach - three ingredients for a wonderful swim. I loved meeting the old ladies of the village who come early in the morning for their regular swim and social gathering.
