Vacation in Greece, Hotels in Greece, Holidays in Greece, Ios

Pack your bags for a trip that will change your life forever. Take the first boat to Ios. Don't think it twice. The boat sails through the Aegean sea and the seagulls fly among the masts...The salty breeze, the bunches of young people wandering on the ship, restless, happy, singing, will smoothly carry you away into the island rhythms. They travel to the island of the 52 golden beaches, some isolated and some more visited, and the more than 150 bars. Ios or "Little Malta" as it's called by sailors because its port is protected from the wind.

According to the tradition, the island is considered to be Homer's mother homeland while it is speculated that the great poet died and was buried here.

Ios is one of the southern Cycladic islands. The highest mountain is Pirgos 713m height in the center of the island. The warmest months are July and August (average temperature 28C). The weather is mostly cool however due to the northerly wind called Meltemi.
