Lesbos is the third largest island in Greece. The breathtaking landscape rolls through regions of pine-covered mountains to area of barren, yet dramatic volcanic stone. There are numerous sand and pebble beaches and many sheltered and isolated coves dotted along the spectacular indented coastline. The temperate climate, rivers and natural springs all contribute to maintain the surprisingly lush vegetation of the island. Lesbos is also host to a superb petrified forest located between Eressos and Sigri in the southwest. This is a land steeped in traditions and rich in history and culture. |
