Just an hour from Athens by ferry, Kea (also known as Tzia) feels like a world apart – elegant, earthy, and deeply Greek.
With stone-built villages, oak-lined hiking trails, and a coastline full of secret swim spots, it’s an island that reveals itself slowly. Holidays in Kea Greece are perfect for those who want to relax without isolation, discover without rushing, and stay somewhere that feels personal, not packaged. Elena helps travellers uncover Kea’s quieter charms – from tucked-away tavernas to hilltop villas – and build a trip that blends ease with depth. It also makes a natural pairing with
yoga retreats,
writing holidays, or a cultural contrast in
Athens.
