EPIDAVROS, GREECE
HOME TO THE WORLDS FIRST HEALTH SANCTUARY
THE OUTDOOR SEASONS
Epidavros - the home of outdoor activities in the Spring (April/May) and Autumn (Sept/Oct) months.
In the Spring and Autumn, whilst the sun stays out, our Summer tourists go home, and Epidavros goes back to resembling the Greek island of your youth - an outdoor paradise - quiet, warm and full of ancient sites and great food at amazing prices.
In Epidavros, we call this time ‘The Outdoor Seasons’, when we welcome enthusiasts of any outdoor activity to enjoy it here - at the birthplace of civilisation in Europe. Our ‘Outdoor Seasons’ club card will get you discounted access to our outdoor paradise - where you can spend the whole day participating in your favourite outdoor activity, making sure you leave time to enjoy the sun, sea and souvlaki and to finish each night with a Greek feast, under the stars.
Everyone can enjoy their favourite ‘me-time’ passion, in the very best location. This is a foodie’s paradise, full of wineries, history tours, and the best fruit and olives. You can spend time with passionate producers of local produce, hold discussions on culture at the 14,000-seat amphitheatre and join dinners on the beach to share food, wine and ideas.
We have swimming, hiking, SUP’ing, visits to ancient sites, diving, walks, beautiful towns, beachfront cafes and restaurants, a volcano to hike, hot springs, amphitheatres, motorbikes for hire, places to write, relax or create, to shop, to explore and even to dance the night away.
Our ‘Outdoor Seasons’ card is valid in the Spring (April and May) and Autumn (September and October.)
We are inspired by being at the site of the world’s first-ever health sanctuary and we can personalise every aspect of your time here, so you can enjoy your favourite way to exercise or unwind, with amazing scenery and weather, but also have plenty of time to relax and leave this little corner of paradise, physically refreshed, and mentally inspired by a break, where just life itself feels rich.
We have accommodation for all budgets - from our beachside campsites to 4-star hotels, so however, you like to spend your ‘me-time’. Epidavros is the place to do it.
Epidavros: breaks down the walls which lock the spirit in.
The landscape installs itself in the open places of the heart, it crowds in, accumulates, dispossesses. You are participating in a rout of the forces of greed, malevolence, envy, selfishness, spite, intolerance, pride, arrogance, cunning, duplicity and so on.
