    My late wife and myself loved Kos. Many , many years ago we visited Therma, where hot water flowed from into the sea. a long walk down from the bus stop. There was a rock pool where the hot water went. sometimes the pool was very pleasant, sometimes it was boiling.. i would love to go back one day. 😁

      Hi Derek, Kos is truly full of wonderful areas isn't it! Therma Beach was definitely a nice one right next to the cliffs, although we didn't try the water - we might have to go back too, I think ☺️

    Do NOT hire a buggy, quad or ATV. This is the number one cause of accidents and hospitalisations on the island. The hospital is ill-equipped for emergencies! Most travel insurance does not cover you for this activity and roads in Kos can be hazardous outside of town for visitors. On a positive note, don't miss the Tigaki Salt Lake (in quieter months there are flamingos), visit Agios Stefanos in Kefalos and swim to the island of Kastri for your mamma mia moment. Neighbouring Nisyros island is a geothermal volcano where you can walk the crater and explore the mountain villages. Take a bus or car to the natural thermal springs 10 mins drive out of Kos Town. Hiring bicycles is one of the top things to do in Kos due to it's bike friendly cycle paths and coastal roads. There is a ferry running again after covid restrictions to Bodrum from the harbour or join one of the weekly one day boat trips to other nearby islands in the Summer. Horseriding schools in Mamari offer sunset rides or experienced riders to swim with them on the beach. In Kos town there is a mini train which tours the local archaeological sites with a short audio tour - visit Casa Romana next to the Odeon, the Ancient Agora and many more on the town's walking map. If you are taking a car, don't miss the abandoned villages in the mountains from the Byzantine periods like Paleo Pyli. Sports enthusiasts can also hike from Zia to the top of Mt Dikios or one of the many nature trails through the pines/cypress forests. There really is something for everyone in Kos!
