The place we stopped for lunch had a few different restaurants to choose from, we ate at the guides recommendation where we got to try some local dishes and it was absolutely delicious. One thing to know is the cost for the thermal baths start at €3 for one, but there are 3 small pools and one larger one that costs €5, so if you want to swim in them all you will end up paying a bit more. I would highly recommend this trip if you are spending a few days in Thessaloniki and…”

“Very Nice expérience. Plenty of time on the beach of the Island. Take your swim show to explore and your food. The little café, does not provide food enough, bad quality and expensive. And you will wait long time to get your order. The sea is beautiful. And the view also. You are by yourself all the day and for the dinner. I recommand to book the spa, it is nice after a beach day. Maybe too expensive because you pay only to get the bus, the boat and the spa entry”
