Nationality: Norway
Age: 18
The trip: We got to Ios Island by boat from Santorini. It was a pretty crowded boat so we had to sit inside. The air condition was too cool and we really wanted to spend the journey outside viewing the sea.
Reasons for going to Ios: It is the third year I go to Ios Greece to spend my holidays. I love the island for its incredible beaches, the party scene and the friendly people.
Idea before arriving: The first time I went to Ios I thought that it eould be a party island. The island was recommended to me by friends.
Expectations and opinions: Yes, it met my expactations. It is really a party island by excellence. I was really impressed that so many people were there for the same reason than me: party, party, party... The scene begins after 12h and before, it is difficult to say that it is one of the most active islands of Greece. After 12h, the streets of the town of Ios start beeing very crowded of people looking for a good place to start their night.
Ios is really a great place for holidays. There are also many other interests than its exciting nightlife. The beaches of Ios are really amazing. White sand and turquoise waters. The town itself (a village) is really charming with its typical greek island architecture.
Favorite about the island: The nightlife (of course) and the beach Mylopotas
Negative opinion: It is a very windy island and there are too much Italians. You hear italian everywhere! Sometimes you feel more on an italian island that a greek one.
Recommendations: Wear good shoes, stay at sunrise but be prepared of a hell of a hill climb.
Yes, If I already went there three times there will be definitely a fourth time also
