10:00

Egnoussa Harbor and Mermaid Statue

Set aside about 60–75 minutes for the harbor, watching the fishing boats and vessels in motion and walking to the Mermaid Statue, one of Inousses’ symbols. The statue and the stretch of walkway on the pier can be visited from the port area without a dedicated ticket; budget €0 for the visit, aside from any personal expenses. If you arrive by ferry from Chios, check the route and official schedules in advance: timings and connections may vary.

The pier can be exposed to sun and wind: bring water, a hat, and sunscreen.

11:30

Oinousses Maritime Museum

From the harbor, walk to the museum, allowing roughly 5–10 minutes for the transfer and 45–75 minutes for the visit. The collections tell the island’s seafaring story through models, documents, and objects linked to navigation; after your visit, you can stop for lunch and spend the afternoon on a leisurely stroll along the waterfront, staying in the area. For admission, allow around €0–5, but check the museum’s official website or the local municipality for any fees, opening hours, and visit details.

Compare the visit times with the return ferry schedule if you are leaving the same day.

10:00

Evangelismos Monastery

Plan about 60–90 minutes for the visit and take in the architecture, the monastery grounds, and the peaceful setting where it stands. From the island center, it can be reached on foot if the route and heat allow; alternatively, ask in town about the availability of a local taxi and the fare, typically in the €5–15 range. For any visits to indoor areas, access, and entry arrangements, check ahead with an official source or on site.

Wear respectful clothing and bring water; for information on any donations or tickets, check the official website or contact the monastery.

15:30

Bilali Beach

After a lunch break and an unrushed transfer, set aside about 2–3 hours for the beach: relax on the shore and consider a swim only if sea conditions and access are safe. Ask locally whether it is better to get there on foot or by taxi; allow roughly 0–15 € for the transfer, depending on distance and availability, and bring water and everything you need, without assuming beach services will be available. Head back toward the center in the late afternoon and keep the rest of the evening free for dinner, with an estimated spend of 15–30 € per person.

Before setting off, check sea conditions, trail accessibility, and the availability of return transport on site.

10:00

Kastro Beach

Spend the morning at the beach: bring water, sunscreen, and everything you need for an independent stop, as services and availability may vary. From the center, consider the walk if conditions and distance are suitable, or ask locally for a lift or a taxi; allow about 30–60 minutes for the overall transfer, to be confirmed on site. Set aside time for swimming and a simple lunch break, budgeting around 10–25 € per person for a light meal if you buy food or drinks.

Check sea conditions and whether any services are available before you leave; for access details and up-to-date information, consult official sources or ask locally.

17:00

Church of Agios Nikolaos

Head back to the village and visit the church at a relaxed pace, taking in the architecture and decorative details without disturbing any religious services. Set aside about 30–45 minutes for the visit and a walk through the nearby streets; if you need transportation, arrange it on site and allow roughly 0–10 € per person depending on the method and distance. After the visit, you can stop for dinner in the harbor area, expecting about 15–30 € per person for a meal, then return at leisure by 21:00.

Opening hours and any visitor rules are not guaranteed: check the official website, if available, or ask locally before visiting.

10:00

Apiganos Beach

Reach the beach from the port or your accommodation with a local transfer arranged in advance; timing and cost depend on the departure point, but allow roughly 10–20 minutes by car and about 10–25 € for a taxi ride. Spend the morning swimming and relaxing, taking in the coastline and the clear water; bring water, a hat and a snack, as services are not guaranteed. The beach itself is usually a free stop, while any sunbeds or refreshments, if available, come at variable prices.

Also agree on the return time: transport on the island can be limited and should not be taken for granted.

16:00

Boat trip to the islet of Panagia

After returning and taking a lunch break, head to the port and board only after agreeing on the route, duration and drop-off point with a local operator; the crossing may take roughly 15–30 minutes each way, depending on the boat and the sea. During the outing you can see the coast of Inousses and the smaller islands, with time for a stop in the water or on land only if it is allowed and safe. Expect roughly 30–80 € per person for a shared excursion, or a higher total rate for a private boat; check the price, whether fuel is included and the cancellation terms directly with the operator.

The outing depends on wind and sea conditions; check for any landing restrictions and return while there is still enough daylight, leaving time for dinner after the excursion.

10:00

Fourkeros Beach

Reach the beach from the center by local transport or a rental car, checking transport availability and road conditions first; allow about 15–30 minutes, depending on your starting point and conditions. Dedicate around three hours to the sea, alternating swimming with a walk along the coast and a break in the shade: bring water, sun protection and everything you need, as services may be limited. Factor in possible transport costs of around 5–20 € each way and a small amount for drinks or snacks, roughly 3–10 €.

Before setting out, check transport options on the official website or with local operators and bring cash for any expenses that cannot be paid by card.

16:30

Platia Oinousses (Central Square)

Head back toward the village and reach the central square on foot from the port or your arrival point, setting aside about 15–30 minutes for the walk and an hour for the visit. Admire the buildings and public spaces around the square, then stroll leisurely through the nearby streets and take a break in a café; for a drink, budget about 3–6 €. Finish with dinner at a local taverna in the center, allowing around 15–30 € per person, depending on your choices and drinks.

These amounts are indicative: check menus, payment methods and service availability on site.

10:00

Scenic trail to Prophetis Elias

Walk from the village to the starting point, allowing roughly 15–30 minutes depending on your location and the route chosen; follow a reliable local path toward Prophetis Elias and allow about 1–2 hours for the walk there, stops, and the return, depending on the terrain and your pace. Along the way, take in the island’s silhouette, Mediterranean vegetation, and sea views; bring water, a hat, and shoes with sturdy soles, as shade can be limited. The hike normally does not require a ticket, but trail conditions should be checked on site; budget around 2–5 € for water or small supplies. After you return, leave time for a simple lunch and a cool break before continuing.

Do not rely only on phone signal: download an offline map and ask for up-to-date directions before setting off on the trail.

15:00

Choira Beach

After lunch, reach the beach on foot or with a locally arranged transfer booked in advance; allow roughly 20–40 minutes’ walk from the village, depending on your starting point and the route chosen. Spend the afternoon swimming and relaxing, checking access to the sea and seabed conditions on site; bring water, sun protection, and everything you need, without assuming facilities will be available.

Return before evening and end the day with dinner in the village, allowing about 15–30 € per person for a simple meal.

Check sea conditions locally and arrange your return in advance if you do not want to walk back.

10:00

Oinousses Lighthouse

From the port or the island center, reach the lighthouse with a local transfer arranged in advance; confirm the road conditions and the final stretch, which may require a short walk. Set aside about an hour for the visit and the sea views over the surrounding islands: treat the lighthouse as an outdoor viewpoint, without assuming the interior can be visited. Budget roughly €10–30 for a local transfer, to be confirmed on site.

Do not count on an on-demand taxi or shuttle service: agree the time and return trip before you leave. Check for any access restrictions and updated information through official or local channels.

14:00

Tselapi Bay

Reach the bay with the arranged transfer and allow about three hours to swim, stroll along the shore, or relax in the shade, if available. Bring water, sunscreen, and something to eat: don’t assume there will be bars, facilities, or rentals. Include a lunch break between the two stops; a simple meal can cost around €12–25 per person, while any snacks, drinks, or beach purchases depend on the services available.

Check sea conditions before swimming and bring suitable shoes if the seabed or shore is rocky. For any services and access, check the latest local information.
