Fascinating and raw, Kéa is a hidden gem. It is a wild island in the Cyclades which is accessible via one hour ferry ride from Lavrio port in Athens.
With breathtaking panoramas in all shades of ochre, green and blue, Kéa expands over 150 km2 of hills, olive orchards, old stones houses, scenic cliffs and crystal clear beaches. Its history began with the Bronze Age.
Kéa is also a hiking paradise through nature and history. The island hosts beautiful archeological sites such as Karthea which is home to temples of Athena, Apollo, and Asklepios, and the Lion of Ioulis, an enigmatic ancient stone sculpture, which was carved sometime prior to 600 BC. Ioulis (or Loulida) is Kéa’s picturesque old city with authentic tavernas and beautiful artisan shops.
Wild and untamed, Kéa has a mysterious, profound and compelling energy that celebrates slow living and connectedness to nature and mystical mythology. It is an ode to simplicity, generosity and wonder.
Authentic Kéa
Into the Wild
Witnessing Kéa’s colors change through the seasons is magic. The transformational odyssey unfolds gracefully from lush, colorful and juicy during winter and springtime, to wild and spectacularly arid during summer. All is choreographed to the wind, the mood of the Aegean sea, and the untamed earth that holds the story of a wild and impetuous nature.
All is an invitation to slow down, breathe mindfully and witness.
All is an invitation to surrender and become one with the island.
All is an invitation to slow down and witness.
All is an invitation to become one with the island.
