Around us....:
...is only Greece in its entire originality and unity. The nature of this part of the island (southern Eböa) is beautiful in its own way. There is less green than in the northern part of the island, the landscape is similar to that of the small islands of the Aegean in the south. Southern Euböa has an old history. There are a lot of interesting, mostly Byzantine monuments, churches, monasteries and castles. The fishing harbour, the boats that come and go, stores, taverns and cafes, the cosy locals, people relaxing and a few foreigners creates a humane and Mediterranean atmosphere. Line bus connections between Karystos and Chalkida (about 127 km) come twice a day. The ferry connections to the mainland go from Marmari to Rafina or from Nea Styra to Agia marina. Karystos - marmari about 12/15 km, Karystos - nea Styra about 40 km
'Greeces colourful jewelry box' - Evia -:
The island of Evia offers holiday goers culture and relaxation. Euböa is the second largest island from Greece after Crete and houses all of its beauties and charms that a guest expects from a holiday region. Furthermore, it still has its typical character that once led a Greek poet to refer to Euböa as 'Greece's largest jewelry box'. Enchanting mountain landscapes with summits of up to 1800 m, mountain villages and monasteries alternate with fertile valleys and high plateaus, thick forests and fully karstified landscapes. And always present: the sea - deep blue and teal. Here steep coasts, there wide sand and pebble beaches and there coastal cities and fishing cities.
Bays, beaches and hiking options:
Karystos and the surroundings offer a lot of swimming pleasure. Primarily sand and pebble beaches invite you to go swimming or walking by the water. The selection between a less frequented bay, the lively beach near the city or the 'youth beach' with a disco at the exit of the city remains your own choice. The region of Karystos also has Kalamos Beach, Livadi Beach, Linari Beach and the beaches within the Gulf of Karystos. Those who like to hike will particularly enjoy April to the end of June, since the vegetation is in full bloom during this time. We also recommend the nature reserve 'Dimosari gorge' with its rare wild flowers, butterflies and birds. During the fall (September-October), a popular time for hikes, the region is dry and sparse. Tours are offered!
