6Ikaria — The island where time slows down

Ikaria is legendary for its slow pace and longevity. Its beaches, including Seychelles and Nas, are stunning but rarely crowded.

Thermal springs at Therma and Loutra are perfect for wellness enthusiasts. Villages such as Evdilos and Christos Raches host traditional festivals with music and dance, often lasting late into the night. Local cuisine emphasizes natural, simple ingredients: wild herbs, goat cheese, and local honey. Ikaria invites travelers to experience life as the locals do — relaxed, social, and unhurried.
