2Kos – Nightlife Over Heritage
Kos is a popular Dodecanese island known for sunny weather and active nightlife. While it has some historical sites, it is often considered overrated by those seeking a quieter or more culturally rich experience.
Why it can feel overrated:
-
Tourist-focused towns: Areas like Kardamena and Kos Town cater heavily to budget tourists and package holiday groups.
-
Noisy beaches and bars: Summer brings crowds, loud music, and party-oriented beach clubs, which can overwhelm quieter spots.
-
Underwhelming scenery: While parts of Kos are scenic, they rarely match the dramatic landscapes of nearby islands like Rhodes or Symi.
For travelers hoping for a mix of history, culture, and natural beauty, Kos may feel less rewarding than other Dodecanese islands.
