Right I am not sure about this 5 minute descent, I was looking for climbing gear to rent ! It is horrendous, the path is a least 15 mins descent and like a vertical hill on the way back. I assisted a fellow tourist on the way back up with a double buggy! Oh boy did he regret it. I... More

it is a very unique place. hot water comes out from a mountain spring and you are surrounded by steep rocks. really wild beautty. the thing is that the authorities have to do a lot of things to make this area safe and visitable because the rocks are not so stable in this area. More

a landslide had made the thermal area much smaller. Nonetheless, it was hot, free and fun. Take the bus out. It is at the end of the line. Easy to find More

We found out about this attraction through a travel guide we bought as a souvenir while on holiday at Kos, to celebrate our 12th Wedding Anniversary. When the book gave the distance of Therma Beach as 13 km (8 miles) from Kos town, we decided to hire bicycles for a adventurous day out to check out the site. So I... More

We visited the Therma beach on an excursion and arrived about 10am when the beach and thermal bath was pretty quiet, as the hours went on it got very crowded. I would advise going earlier to get a good spot on the beach and in the water. The beach is down a steep slope which took about 5 minutes to... More

A really nice place to come and relax, then after you warm up for a bit you can take a dip in the ocean to cool off and repeat the process all over again. The only downside is the odor of sulfur which kind of goes hand in hand with a thermal hot spring. It was also neat seeing the... More
