At first appearance, Lesvos was quite different from the typical Greek islands I have visited in the past. There are no overwhelmingly beautiful landscapes or tourist attractions to lure visitors to this huge Aegean island. But, after a week on Lesvos, I realize that the island is quietly... More >
For the first time to Lesvos but for sure not the last time. We were pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of the local population, a kindness we haven't found any where else yet in Greece. We stayed at the Molivos Residence, the owner Roulla a beautiful nice young woman who will go out of here... More >
Legend has it that Makaras, son of Sun God, made his home on the island of Lesvos. The sun, the verdant olive groves and the sea casted their spell on me, and I truly began to believe in myths from the moment I set foot on this beautiful island. Didn't some great poet once say, "if there is a... More >

The island of my grandparents, Lesvos is like a second home to me. My family are second-generation Greek-Americans and every summer we return to Lesvos to visit the grandparents and see the island.
Our home is in Agiassos, one of the most beautiful villages on Lesvos, very close to the capital,... More >
Lesvos has some of the most wonderful landscapes. The combination of mountains and plains with pristine beaches on a rugged coastline looked extremely picturesque. The mountains were filled with numerous olive trees and the locals told us that there were almost 11 million of them on Lesvos. We... More >

Definitely you need a car. The majority of tourists that I have met were repeat travellers to the island and could not just get enough of it.
You will not find better traditional food and olive oil in... More >
We had a wonderful vacation in one of the largest islands of Greece, Lesvos. The most noticeable feature that we came across was that on one side of the island there were mountains and on the other side there were plains with a rugged coastline. As we drove across the island we saw plenty of olive... More >

We just returned from an incredible week in Lesvos and we have so many things to share! First of all, if you don't already know it, Lesvos is a very big island and you definitely need a car to get around. If we didn't have our car, we wouldn't have seen all these things. The landscape varies so... More >
Lesvos has much to offer. Tourists in early May go mostly in NW near Molyvos and Petra in SW near Scala Erresou. Villages all friendly, restaurants tried all universally acceptable to good. Best food was in Petra, Molyvos and Scala Erresou. Found that there is a considerable variation across ... More >
I went to Lesvos last month on a tour organized by our church for pilgrimage to the monastery of Saint Rapheal. This is one of the most important monasteries on Lesvos and many people believe that it is working miracles. In our group, there were many who wanted to pray for health and sickness... More >
