Zoliver Says: Avoid at all costs the "Three Island Pleasure Cruise" run by Epirotiki Cruises and Pleasure Crusies to the islands of Poros, Hydra, and Aegina. Once you aboard, you'll scamper around looking for a place to hide from both the frigid 'breeze' and the three hundred other...
GracesTrips Says: Poros is TINY, to say the least. So, plan to have a nice meal and walk up and down the shoreline. If you plan to stay over night, it should be for one evening unless you plan to lounge around your hotel.

Small Grocery Markets: If I was able to cook, I would be buying!
GracesTrips Says: A typical grocery store would have their produce just outside of the store for all to view. It looked soooo good! The unfortunate drawback with traveling is that you stay in a hotel, there is no kitchen and so, you can't cook. I can't count how many times I wish we could buy...

Where the Greeks go to vacation
My boyfriend bought this beautiful painting by a Greek artist in Athens just the previous day. The art gallery owner said it was a scene from the island of Poros. This is where the Greek go to for......
