Poros is an attractive coastal town located on the southeast coast of Kefalonia, one of the Ionian Islands of Greece. Situated at the crossing point where the Vohinas river enters the sea, the name ‘Poros’ actually means ‘ford’ or ‘crossing’ in Greek. As a port town, Poros links Kefalonia with mainland Greece with daily ferry services. Local fishing boats also use the harbour to supply the area with fresh fish. Poros used to be no more than a small cluster of fishermen’s huts, until the 1953 earthquake destroyed many of the surrounding villages and a new town was built. Nowadays, Poros is built around a marvellous landscape of lush green forests and has a population of around 1100 inhabitants. The combination of dense vegetation and crystal blue water makes Poros one of the most perfect summer holiday destinations. With a slow pace of life and a traditional Greek atmosphere, Poros is great for those who seek to escape the package tours and find something genuinely Greek.
Known for the array of volcanoes scattered across the town, Methana is comprised of entirely volcanic origins. Found on the Peloponnese peninsula in Greece, Methana offers ferry routes to other coastal resorts belonging to Greece, with crossings lasting from twenty minutes to just over two hours. Much like the majority of the coastal resorts residing in Greek territory, Methana has an abundance of beautiful beaches that are perfect for visitors hoping to relax in the sun. The azure blue waters next to the gorgeous beaches are postcard picture worthy, making sunbathing even more idyllic in the stunning surroundings. For those who like to live on the edge, many of the volcanoes can be visited if care is taken and guidelines are followed. The trek up to the tip of the volcano is relatively tough, but it makes the view from the top even more captivating. From the extremes of relaxing in the sun to exploring volcanoes, there is a middle ground; the hot springs found in the region are one of the most frequently visited attractions, with the unique nature proving to be too tempting an experience. After sampling the sights, the restaurants generally serve fresh seafood which is a popular choice for many visitors. The town of Methana is relatively small so most if it can be covered by foot, but for a more convenient journey then it could be best to travel via taxi, which are generally readily available throughout the town.
