Poros - Kefalonia

Poros, the largest market town of east Cefalonia, 35km from Argostoli. Poros is a small, beautiful town with many supermarkets, gift shops, restaurants, fish taverns, cafeterias and bars (no disco).

Poros is built on a narrow coastal strip of land bound on both ends by the estuaries of Vohina, the Homeric Reithro and the remains of the ancient Pronnean port. Despite its raggedness, the narrow gorge on the northwestern side of the town offers the easiest gateway to the interior. Poros is the ferry port with regular services to Killini. With endless clean beaches and numerous archaeological sites including the Mycenaean vaulted tomb at Roghi Tzannaton, the monastery at Mt. Atros - the mountainous landscape racing down to meet the crystal waters and the warm welcome of the locals - ideal for a memorable holiday.
