Agios Georgios

Many visitors to Agios Georgios love to walk extensively or just stroll and the area caters for both tastes.

The long sandy beach is ideal for ambling along the wide gently sloping sand or paddling through the clear water. If you get thirsty there are numerous tavernas at regular intervals nearby.

Most roads are generally quiet and there is no main road. Obviously walkers must keep aware of approaching traffic and step on to the verge, particularly on the road to Pagi which has some blind corners.
Remember that a lot of cars, scooters and motor bikes are hire ones driven by British tourists unused to the controls and driving on the right, so give them plenty of space!

I have suggested a few walks of varying length, with detailed routes and some photographs.

Comment: Too much rubbish (plastic bags etc) is now appearing and will spoil these lovely walks. Please do not add to it ! TAKE your rubbish back to a disposal point!

Walks Guide booklet and map.

For walkers an excellent Guide booklet with map giving precise details of several walks is on sale at Theo's Hotel on the Pagi road and possibly some others. This guide is produced by Lance Chilton of Marengo Publications who publish similar guides to many Greek Islands. The map is really good as it shows even the smallest footpaths and is useful for just wandering around this area.
It can also be purchased on-line before you go at: http://www.marengowalks.com/.
