Charming Zia in the southernmost slope, whose superb location makes it the perfect spot for viewing spectacular sunsets and gazing at the nearby islands of Kalymnos and Pserimos as well as the Turkish coast in the distance.
During the summer the settlement of Zia is bursting with activity from the countless visitors who come to taste local delicacies served in charming traditional taverns, to purchase unique local products and souvenirs and to stroll through the cobblestone alleyways all the way up to its crystal-clear fresh water springs, the most well-known of which is Kefalovrisi.

What To Expect
Zia
This trip is designed to give you all the freedom you wish to discover Zia on your own terms. The minibus will pick you up from your hotel and bring you to its center. You will enjoy discovering the village by yourself, at your own pace, without a guide. Zia is an enchanting little village that lies at the base of Mount Dikeos, the highest mountain of Kos island, that culminates at 846m above sea level. The village has kept its traditional feel and has become one of the major tourist attractions of the island. Here you wiall find many little shops selling local products, arts and crafts. The atmosphere is very relaxed and you will enjoy to sip your drink or dine on a romantic terrace while admiring the most beautiful sunset on Kos. We recommend you to try the famous delicious homemade lemonade served everywhere. You will have approximately 2 and a half hours free time.

3.00Top tip, do not follow the crowds, you'll be disappointed to be fighting for your sunset pics with 300 people all doing the same, instead, walk or drive a little further up the mountain to find a lovely quiet spot, then go and enjoy the beautiful village of Zia

3.00Loads of cafes. Closing down mid October 20th. Zia is best seen in the daylight. We arrived to late and the sun was just setting. Beautiful and getting chilly. Take a jacket and cash. Loads of gift shops.
Pick up and drop off Dolphin Square. Perfect!

4.00Went to Zia to enjoy the sunset, was a bit disappointing due to the clouds. Zia is very touristy, many souvenir shops, and many restaurants. Nice to see sometime.
