The island of Evia is located off the Greek
mainland in the Aegean Sea. This region has a
special magic of its own, with rugged coasts
and golden sands, pine perfumed air, incredible
sunsets, and uninhibited fun in the waterfront
tavernas. The island is the second largest in
Greece, after Crete. It is long and narrow,
stretching over the Aegean Sea very close
alongside the shores of the Greek mainland, and
separated from it by the Gulf of Evia and the
famous Evripos Straits. Evia has all the beauty
and charm a traveller could want. What's more,
it still preserves its typical character, which
once led a Greek poet to describe Euboea as
"Greece's rich jewel box". Enchanting
mountainscapes with peaks of up to 1,800 meters
- climbers paradise -, mountain villages and
monasteries alternate with fertile valleys and
plateaux, dense woodland and rugged limestone
landscapes. Ever present is the sea, deep blue
and emerald green, steep cliffs and wide sandy
or pebbly beaches.
