10:00

Vathy

Spend about two hours exploring the harbor and the central streets, admiring the houses overlooking the bay and stopping for a coffee or a late breakfast. The waterfront is best explored on foot; for an informal lunch break, budget around 10–20 € per person, depending on your choice.

If you arrive by ferry, leave your luggage at your accommodation or in a storage facility before your stroll; check any visits and tickets on official channels.

12:15

Lazaretto Islet

Reach the islet with a walk of about 15–25 minutes from the port, checking the pedestrian route and access conditions on site. Allow about 30–45 minutes for the small chapel and the view over the bay; the outdoor visit is a brief stop, with no transport costs if the crossing is accessible.

Wear shoes with sturdy soles and follow any local instructions: accessibility and crossing conditions may vary.

14:30

Filiatro Beach

From Vathy, reach Filiatro by car or scooter in about 10–15 minutes; alternatively, check taxi availability and expect an indicative fare of 10–20 € per trip. Set aside two or three hours for swimming and relaxing: bring water, sunscreen, and cash for any snacks or services, which may vary and are not included.

Return to Vathy before evening; check on site for any available services and sea conditions.

09:00

Panagia Kathariotissa Monastery

Leave Vathy by car or scooter and allow about 30–40 minutes for the climb, with bends and views of the coast; actual time depends on your starting point and road conditions. Spend about an hour at the complex and enjoying the panorama from above; allow 0–5 € for a possible offering or contribution, without treating it as a certain entry fee.

Drive carefully and check in advance for any access rules, dress code requirements, and official information before your visit.

11:30

Anogi and Its Menhirs

Continue by car to Anogi, reachable in about 10–20 minutes, and park where permitted to visit the village on foot. Allow 60–90 minutes for the traditional houses and the large isolated boulders known as menhirs: observe their shapes and carvings without climbing on or disturbing the rocks. Budget 0–5 € for a stop or possible visit, to be confirmed locally.

Bring water and comfortable shoes: in the village and its surroundings, the ground can be uneven.

15:00

Stavros

Reach Stavros in about 20–30 minutes by car and spend two hours strolling through the center and taking a late lunch break, roughly 12–25 € per person. Look for references to the island’s Homeric tradition and observe the layout of the village, without confusing mythological narratives with certain archaeological finds. In the evening, you can return to Vathy in about 25–35 minutes.

Allow extra time for the journey: the road is scenic but winding, and the duration can vary.

10:00

Frikes

From Stavros, reach Frikes in about 10–15 minutes by car; from the south of the island, plan for a longer transfer and check the route before setting off. Spend about an hour walking between the harbor and the houses by the sea, then stop for a coffee or snack, roughly 5–15 €. If you are traveling without your own vehicle, check transport links and taxi availability in advance.

Leave room for parking and do not block areas used by residents and boats.

13:00

Kioni

From Frikes, continue to Kioni in about 15–25 minutes by car, along a road with bends and views over the coast. Set aside two or three hours for the little harbor and the uphill lanes, with an estimated lunch break of 15–30 € per person; bring water if you want to explore the surroundings on foot. For any taxi transfer or boat services, ask about fares and availability on site.

Before arranging excursions or paid visits, check conditions, availability, and up-to-date official information.
