About Ios Island
Ios is the oldest landmass in Greece, having been carbon dated at 500,000,000 years of age. It existed long before the creation of its neighbor, Santorini, 27,000 years ago. Populated since the Neolithic period, there are prehistoric graves, temple ruins, Cyclopean walls, a derelict Venetian castle, Byzantine churches, Minoan artifacts and the grave of Homer at Plakato. Subsequent to its official recognition as ‘Homer’s Island’ and recent important archeological discoveries, the island now has an elected mayoral president. It has also attracted substantial governmental and EU funding that has provided modern infrastructure including roads, a de-salinating plant and reservoir, a police station, satellite communications, a well funded cottage hospital with ambulances and a heliport for medical emergencies, landscaping, a town hall, an international yachting marina and a museum.

Tourists and residents arrive by liner, jet boat or hydrofoil from other islands or Athens and there is a daily liner service during the short winter period. A fast boat journey from Piraeus to Ios takes approximately three hours.

Public and luxury private buses are available from the port with a current fare of one Euro and ten cents, wherever you board or alight.
