Lesvos is a large island with a wealth of attractions. There are a great many beaches along its long coastline, one of the best being Skala Eressos. The beaches range from busy organised beaches with water sports and umbrellas to deserted bays.

The town of Mytilini is overlooked by a large castle. The Yeni mosque and an ancient theatre can also be found in the town. This coastal town also has a beach.

A site not to be missed is the petrified forest. Its preserved tree stumps are millions of years old and cover a large area.

Sailing around the Northern Aegean Islands is wonderful and Lesvos is no exception.
