Ios Island Greece Nightlife Walking Tour

[@normancook965]

I just love this walk down memory lane - thank you very much. I met my wife in Ios in 1987 and haven't been back since the late 90s. I feel like I'm back there and many years younger☺

Worked a couple of summers in the 90s…..crazy place…

[@antoniofineschi7467]

What a memory. I was there 1985,1988 1989 working at Calypso bar.

[@westartfromhere7704]

A far cry from my memories of Ios as a little youth in the mid 70's getting a donkey trek across the island and eating sea urchin eggs on the beach with the hippies. Still, it looks like a different kind of paradise fuelled by pharms and alcohol, not Greek herbs.

Go in September, much more chilled

[@georginagregory9309]

My brother Tony-. part owned a bar there The Tomato Bar don't think it IS there anymore. He loved it on that Island.

Is Ios a Island for rich tourists only?? Or how much is one beer in the main season? How much is a big menu for eat?

[@johnbayern6519]

is not to expensive its not only for rich tourist but... It is not that cheap either.

@@johnbayern6519 Warst du schon da in der Hauptsaison Partyzeit? Was kostet da im Durchschnitt ein 0.5l Bier?

[@johnbayern6519]

@@kukusls2087 Well, I'm not from Germany, but I understand what you're saying. You can find cheap rooms to spend your days, and in Ios, food starts from 8 euros for example pizza pasta crep etc. The beer isn’t too expensive, but I’m not exactly sure how much because I’m not much of a beer guy. maybe around 7 euros. Yeah, I’ve been there for two seasons. It’s very nice, and I highly recommend it, especially if you’re 19-25 years old. I mean, it’s not just meant for rich tourists

[@sjd421]

Hi, I've wanted to party in ios since I heard about it in 2019. Obviously I couldn't do so for several years after that. My friend went when he was 26 in 2019 and said it's a 21 yo party scene. What is it like now? Is it a young scene? My wife and I are in our mid 30s. Some places like new York we are average age, some places we are the weird old people. Can you possibly advise? Thanks so much 😊

[@povfreedom]

The island is very beautiful whether you are over 30 or not The nightlife of the island is for young ages that want to party like tomorrow never exist and these parties usually start after 12:00am If you like parties you will enjoy Ios. Note that this video was captured at 11:00 pm

I’ve been to iOS at least six times in the last 20 years and I am now 57 years old, I have never seen age as a problem there, and never had any problems out at night , just try not too over do it on the drink ha ha.

[@paulgovan3507]

Sadly the same story almost everywhere: females never looking at male strangers and males looking at females who all refuse to make eye-contact or show any interest in any guys/blokes. Solution for both sexes: don't go out searching for u-know-wot until you've downed at least one very large vodka - or equivalent - ideally before and after a quick sea-swim and some limberin' up on the beach.

[@martinrogers4904]

Last year in IOS there were 3 murders all related to the drugs war raging between Romanians,Albanians and the greeks themselves . The Romanians circulated BAD poisoned drugs which killed two young irish lads , this was a warning to all those trying to stop them selling the drugs there . The island is also in the grip of a wave of American students who spend nothing and so the high end resorts and clubs are closing, Pathos lounge etc have closed early for the season as they cannot operate and cannot cope with the drug scene . Absolute shame but thts what happens to an island when its that good....the bad guys move in .

[@anthonydes8984]

I was planning on going end of mid aug for a few nights to experience some party life - you think better to give it a miss?

[@DK-qf6pr]

​@anthonydes8984 I googled in Greek and can't find anything related to it.

[@johnbayern6519]

stop spreading false news

[@martinrogers4904]

@@johnbayern6519 Err....excuse me ...we was there, we watched all unfold. Even the luxurious club Pathos lounge was effected ...it was empty as people fled the island in the first few weeks. My cousin has a business there and he had been telling us about the problems for a couple of years prior to these events .Might be an idea for you to ask around on the island and youll see this is not false.

[@martinrogers4904]

over the years ive noticed to many Romanians and Americans on the island, its becoming unsafe and a little bit like Benidorm

[@harmidis]

Not true! I can confirm, Ios is safe!

[@martinrogers4904]

@@harmidis The drugs on the island are being controlled by Romanians , two irish men died within hours of each other are drug party ? Sorry...you must accept the truth that IOS is now known as a dangerous island ...more police are needed on the island to stop the drugs .

[@povfreedom]

Police can’t stop these incidents This is happening in every well known tourist destination that have a vibrant nightlife You just have to be aware to stay away from drugs and cheap alcohol in weird bars. I was in IOS for 7 days I was going out every night. If you are careful and you don’t drink like tomorrow never comes you will be absolutely fine and you will enjoy the vibrant life of ios

Haven’t been since 1991. Spent 6 weeks there. So much fun. Remember a place called the Sweet Irish Dream and the Farout café down on the big beach. It looks like an older crowd than back then. Italian guys were pests! Looks a lot more civilised now. Thx for the memories
