Hi! It sounds like you have an exciting trip planned to Lesvos next year! Lesvos is a beautiful and relatively large island, so having a car for a few days will definitely help you explore more of what it has to offer. Places to Visit: 1. Petra: - Panagia Glykofilousa Church: The iconic church perched on a large rock in Petra is a must-see. The views from the top are stunning, and the climb is well worth it. - Petra Beach: Spend some time relaxing at Petra Beach, which is known for its clear waters and charming seaside tavernas. 2. Molyvos (Mithymna): - Molyvos Castle: The medieval castle offers breathtaking views of the town and the surrounding sea. The town itself is very picturesque, with narrow streets, stone houses, and traditional shops. - Molyvos Harbor: Enjoy a meal at one of the waterfront tavernas, especially around sunset. 3. Skala Sikamias: - The Church of Panagia Gorgona: Known as the "Mermaid Madonna," this small church is located on a rock by the sea. It’s a peaceful and scenic spot. - Fishing Village Charm: Skala Sikamias is a tranquil village, perfect for a leisurely stroll along the coast and enjoying fresh seafood. 4. Taxiarchis Monastery: - Located near the village of Mandamados, this monastery is dedicated to the Archangel Michael (Taxiarchis), the protector of the island. The icon of Taxiarchis is said to be miraculous, and the monastery has a serene and spiritual atmosphere. 5. Plomari: - Plomari Town: Known as the ouzo capital of Greece, this town offers a chance to visit ouzo distilleries and taste the famous spirit. - Agios Isidoros Beach: One of the most beautiful beaches on the island, located near Plomari. 6. Eressos: - Skala Eressos: A charming beach town with a laid-back vibe, known for its long sandy beach and historical significance as the birthplace of the ancient poet Sappho. - The Petrified Forest: Located near Sigri, this UNESCO-listed site features fossilized trees that are millions of years old. There’s also a museum nearby that offers more insight into this natural wonder. 7. Thermal Springs: - Eftalou: Just outside Molyvos, the Eftalou hot springs are a great place to relax and enjoy the therapeutic waters. Safety in Lesvos: Lesvos is generally very safe for tourists. The local people are known for their hospitality, and crime rates are low. Like anywhere, it's always good to take basic precautions, such as not leaving valuables unattended and being aware of your surroundings, especially in busy areas. Driving is safe, but the roads can be narrow and winding in some parts, so drive carefully, especially at night. Tips: - Local Cuisine: Be sure to try the local cuisine, especially the seafood, olive oil, and cheeses. Lesvos is also famous for its ouzo, so don’t miss the chance to sample different varieties. - Cultural Events: If you’re visiting in the summer, check if there are any local festivals or cultural events happening. These can be a great way to experience the local culture. I’m sure you’ll have an amazing time exploring Lesvos. It’s a beautiful island with a rich history, stunning landscapes, and warm-hearted people. Enjoy your trip!
