Poros is an enchanting concoction of two Greek islands, Sphaeria and Kalaureia, spanning a respectable 31 square kilometres. It's a swift journey from the bustling port of Piraeus, making it a favourite amongst Athenians in search of a weekend getaway. The island boasts an impressive road network and sufficient tourist infrastructure, making your Poros holiday an absolute breeze.

The verdant landscapes add an inviting splash of green to the azure backdrop of the Saronic Gulf. Spectacular pine forests spread across the southern and central regions, while the bushy beauty thrives mostly in the northern and far-eastern/western parts of the island. Proving its prominence in the realm of geology, Poros is laden with an array of sedimentary rocks, ophiolites, and volcanic rocks.

Alternatively, scale the island's highest peak, Vigla, for a breathtaking view of this unique island paradise. No matter where you venture, the vibrant spirit of Poros, once known as Pogon, is ever-present to complete your Greek adventure.

When to visit Poros

Thankfully, there's never really a bad time to visit Poros. Ideal weather conditions bless the island in spring (March through May) and fall (September through November), making these periods perfect if you're looking for milder temperatures. For those who relish the heat, July and August get quite warm, with mid-July sitting as the warmest time of the year.

Despite these temperature highs, Poros is relatively dry with low chances of rain or snow during the summer months. As such, June is usually the busiest month for tourism, closely followed by February and July. Do keep in mind that prices for hotels and flights might spike during peak tourism months.
