What it is
The town of Poros is piled on a hill facing the strait that separates it from the Peloponnese, so narrow that from the quay you see the houses of Galatas on the other side. The highest point is marked by the clock tower, the symbol of the island. Climb from the seafront by whitewashed alleys and stairways with bougainvillea to its base: from above you see the town, the channel full of boats and the mountains opposite.
How to get there
On foot from the quay where the Piraeus boats dock, a ten-minute climb. Return another way to lose yourself in the upper quarter.
Tips
