The thermal springs of Edipsos are the most famous in Greece. Natural hot water emerges at temperatures up to 80°C, rich in minerals. You can experience them in organized spa hotels or in natural seaside pools where hot water mixes with the sea. The waterfront is lined with cafes and restaurants, making it a complete wellness destination.
One of the most beautiful hikes in Greece, the Dimosari Gorge descends from the high plateaus of Mount Ochi down to the Aegean Sea at Kallianos beach. The trail passes through lush vegetation, waterfalls, and dramatic rock formations. It takes approximately 3–4 hours and ends with a swim in crystal-clear waters.
The highest mountain in Evia (1,743m) offers challenging hiking trails through dense fir forests with panoramic views of the Aegean and the Euboean Gulf. The village of Steni Dirfyos is the traditional starting point, with mountain refuges and tavernas serving hearty local food.
The Euripus Strait in Chalkida has one of the most unique tidal phenomena in the world — the current changes direction multiple times a day, and the water literally flows in different directions at different depths. The old bridge is the best spot to observe this, and the waterfront cafes make for a perfect evening out.
Mysterious megalithic structures built from massive stone slabs without mortar, dating back to prehistoric times. The best-preserved is on the summit of Mount Ochi near Karystos. Their purpose remains unknown — theories range from ancient temples to shelters. The hike to reach them is rewarded with spectacular views.
