Evia: A Hidden Gem of the Aegean

A Unique Landscape

Evia stretches across the Aegean, its diverse terrain offers both pristine coastlines and majestic mountains. The island is home to Dirfis, a towering peak that invites hikers and nature lovers alike. Along the coast, the ancient port city of Kymi serves as a gateway to history and tradition.

One of the island’s best-kept secrets is Heromylos Beach, a breathtaking retreat near Agii Apostoloi in southern Evia. Known for its small white rounded pebbles, and crystal-clear blue-green waters, the beach offers a tranquil setting away from mass tourism. While maintaining its unspoiled charm, it provides essential comforts, including a beach bar with sunbeds, umbrellas, and refreshments. The spacious shoreline ensures a relaxed experience, even during peak season.
