There's a reason we've been coming here for 20 years
Sitting in the sparkling turquoise Aegean Sea, Lesvos is a warm and sunny emerald gem of Greece. It is a whole continent in miniature: spectacular beaches, high mountains and wild forests on Greece's third largest island.
Due to the island's size and variety, there's something for everyone: beach holidays, activity holidays, gastronomic tours, nature attractions and spectacular geography.
Here at Real Lesvos we aim to gradually make the wonder and attractions of Lesvos more easily available to the UK traveller. In the map below you'll find an ever-increasing list of our favourite things to do and see on Lesvos!
The small public beach in Mitilini lies beneath the ruined castle walls. Anyone fancying a dip or a spot of sun-bathing should head past the ferry terminal and the imposing Statue of Liberty. Other sun-worshippers head out of town where sheltered coves and stretches of beach line the road towards the airport.
