Known for its stunning natural beauty, this area is a haven for travelers looking to unwind in a tranquil setting while enjoying breathtaking sea views and pristine beaches. Koundouros is famous for its crystal-clear waters and golden sandy beaches, with well-organized options featuring sun loungers and beach bars, as well as more secluded spots for those seeking privacy. The area is dotted with traditional stone-built villas, blending harmoniously with the natural landscape, giving it a unique charm.

Koundouros also offers scenic coastal trails, ideal for hiking and exploring the island’s rugged terrain, which is rich in history and mythology.
Although Tzia is a lesser-known gem among the Cyclades, it is easily accessible from Athens. The island does not have an airport, but travelers can reach it via a short ferry ride from the port of Lavrio, which is approximately 60 kilometers from Athens International Airport (Eleftherios Venizelos).

From Korissia, Koundouros is about a 30-minute scenic drive along winding coastal roads, offering breathtaking views of the Aegean Sea. Public transport on the island is limited, so renting a car or scooter is highly recommended for ease of exploring the beautiful beaches, traditional villages, and historical sites, such as the ancient city of Karthea and the iconic Lion of Kea. Whether you are looking for a peaceful retreat, a romantic getaway, or an adventure-filled island experience, Koundouros offers the perfect blend of relaxation, luxury, and exploration, making it an ideal destination for travelers seeking an authentic Greek island escape.
