After your tour, the day turns to relaxation. We head to Agia Marina Beach, one of the island’s most inviting shores. Take a swim in crystal-clear waters, bask in the sun, or simply unwind at a beachside taverna. Fresh seafood and traditional Greek flavors await—served with a warm island smile.
There’s also time to explore the island further: rent an electric bike for a coastal ride or opt for a romantic horse-drawn carriage. Whatever your style, Spetses offers countless ways to soak in its magic.
In the afternoon, return by sea taxi to Costa and relax during the comfortable drive back to Athens. This full-day getaway is perfect for those who seek nature, culture, and island charm—without the need to stay overnight.
