This route pairs the calm, sheltered swimming and waterside tavernas of the Gera Gulf with the ouzo distilleries and harbour of Plomari further south.
Gera Bay
Swim in the calm, shallow water at Skopelos or Perama, cross the short chain ferry to Koundouroudia, and have lunch on grilled fish at a waterside taverna.
Gulf landscape and industrial south
Circle part of the Gulf of Gera through olive villages and a harbour stop, then continue to Plomari. The change from sheltered water to the steep Sedountas valley and open south coast is the central experience of the route.
Pacing and verification
Use the route as a framework rather than a target list. Remove a stop when museums, meals, swimming or village walks take longer than expected, and confirm current opening hours, road access and seasonal services before departure.
Where to Stay for This Route

Plomari
Continue south to Plomari: the ouzo museums and distilleries, the Sedountas riverbed through town, and a swim at Agios Isidoros or Ammoudeli beach nearby.
The road between Gera and Plomari climbs through olive-grove hills, so allow more driving time than the distance alone suggests.
