Poros is the island of peace, romance and jauntiness. It is overgrown with pine trees which reach the rugged shores or the sandy beaches. The residents of Poros are like all islands, spontaneous, decent and hospitable.

Its Historic Clock is imposing from the distance on the highest top of the hill, among prickly pears and pine trees. It was built in 1927, it is visible from every part and it is the jewel of the town.

The houses by the sea are big and neoclassical. They are thebuilding of Deimezi, built with grey and red stone, the shop of Griva, with the big doors and beautiful decoration. From the most nice houses of Poros is Villa Galini, building of 1892, that has accommodated famous personalities of Art.
