10Ikaria – The Island of Longevity
Ikaria, located in the northeastern Aegean Sea, is known for its laid-back lifestyle and its residents’ remarkable longevity. Unlike other Greek islands buzzing with tourism, Ikaria offers a slow-paced experience where visitors can immerse themselves in local traditions, thermal springs, and scenic hiking trails.
The island’s beaches, like Seychelles Beach and Nas, are unspoiled, and the local panigiria (traditional festivals) provide an authentic cultural experience. Here, time seems to stand still, making it perfect for those looking to disconnect and rejuvenate.
