Poros is really two islands joined by a narrow causeway: the small, densely built town on Sphairia, with its clock tower on the hill, and the pine-covered, thinly settled interior of Kalavria behind it. Most listings here are Athens-based cruises, but the island rewards time on land.

What Makes These Tours Worth Booking
Poros sits just off the Peloponnese coast, divided from the mainland by a very narrow channel. The old town climbs the hill beneath its clock tower, while Kalavria is mostly pine forest, with the Monastery of Zoodochos Pigi and the ruins of the Temple of Poseidon inland. Across the water, the lemon forest is a popular excursion.
