Lesbos Island, primarily known as a landing point for migrants, is actually a beautiful destination perfect for a family vacation, embodying everything that Greece represents. Away from mass tourism, perhaps because reaching Lesbos isn’t that easy, as there are no direct flights, it offers visitors relaxation and many surprises. Are these reasons enough to consider planning your next family vacation in this corner of paradise?
Imagine spending a wonderful day at the beach with your children, where they have fun and you, with a refreshing drink in hand, bask in the sun’s rays. This is what the beaches of Lesbos offer. Stretches of soft sand, crystal clear waters, and landscapes like an impressionist painting provide special moments. Skala Eressos Beach is perfect, with its always calm sea where little ones can play safely. There’s also Petra Beach with its pebbles and the unmistakable view of the rock topped by a chapel, or Agios Isidoros Beach, ideal for snorkeling adventures to explore the seabed.
Home to the poet Sappho, Lesbos has ancient roots. Among the things to do to revisit the past, visit the Medieval Castle of Mytilene, offering an extraordinary view of the city and the sea, or the Limonos Monastery in Kaloni, dedicated to Archangel Michael, which houses an important library with over 5,000 books dating from the 15th century to modern times. And don’t miss one of the most unusual natural phenomena: the Petrified Forest, a unique nature park where trees turned to stone over millennia due to volcanic eruptions and reemerged through natural erosion. There are only two petrified forests in Europe; the other is in the Peloponnese, in the Laconia region.
Treat the whole family to a relaxing experience at the natural thermal baths of Eftalou, known for their healing waters. It will be a rejuvenating experience for everyone.
We recommend choosing Lesbos for a family vacation because once it’s discovered by the masses, it will inevitably change. Take advantage of the opportunity now to create unforgettable experiences and moments that will bring you closer together and leave you with memories you will cherish forever.
