Poros a beautiful green island, laying at the southwest of the Saronic Gulf and opposite to Argolid in Peloponnese. Poros consists of two smaller islands, connected by a bridge, Sferia, a small rocky island and Kalavria, a larger and lusher island with green hills and beautiful coastlines. Its main town and port of the island is built in amphitheatre form on the slopes of a hill. Along the port there are a lot of cafeterias, restaurants, tourist shops and many bars with foreign or Greek music. At the center of the town is worth visiting the Archaeological museum and the island’s trademark the “clock-tower”. Do visit the famous lemon forest which stands opposite on the coast of the Peloponnese and the temple of Poseidon.

Temple of Poseidon
It was built in Doric style around the 6th century. Systematic excavations started by the Swedish archaeologist S.Wide and L.Kjellberg. Today a few remains of the temple are left.
