The unmistakable iridescent blue colour of the glorious Greek summer skies and the inviting coolness of the crystal clear Aegean waters, several of which have been awarded the coveted 'Blue Flag' for quality and cleanliness as well as the inbred hospitality of the locals make Kos island in Greece an ideal holiday destination.

Besides golden, dazzling beaches there is much more that the Greek Island of Kos has to offer. Famous since antiquity and notably for being the birthplace of Hippocrates, the first medical doctor in the world, visitors flocked to Kos to worship at the temple of Apollo or to be treated at the Asklepieion and to take advantage of the natural therapeutic qualities of the thermal springs which are still in use even to this day, most noteworthy of the ancient visitors being Cleopatra of Egypt.
