Is Poros worth visiting?
Poros is worth visiting if you want a Greek island within about an hour of Athens without flying. It is small enough to see on foot in a day, and the channel it sits on is calm, shallow, and unusually sheltered.

Common questions
By ferry from Piraeus. Fast boats take about an hour; conventional ferries take around two and a half.
Two nights is enough to see the town, the clock tower, and the beaches without rushing.
No. The town is walkable and the island is small enough that taxis or a hired boat cover the rest. Most visitors skip the car entirely.
