A couple of days on the most beautiful beaches of Evia. Trip to Eubea, Greece

As each calendar year and decide to hand as a "bridge" work may be good to go and give us some days of relax.
This year's choice 'was the island of Evia and Athens. We think of many Greek islands, Santorini, Serifos, Zante etc ... but in the end we opted for Evia, the most 'big islands but definitely less "famous".

 

Appointment in the morning and 'Malpensa Airport, Easy Jet flight, destination Athens.
Fasten your seatbelts go!
The flight runs smoothly, arrived in Athens we realize just impressions of the 2004 Olympic Games. Airport new and very, very well maintained. Exit out of the airport we go on a bus that takes up shuttling between the airport and the port of Rafina where we'd embarked for the island. From the port is already breathe 'the sea air and fish thanks to mini markets for fresh fish outdoors, octopus, shrimp, lobster ... a watered!.
We take possession of tickets and climb aboard. The trip 'cmq very quick, already' from the dock is visible in the distance the island. We arrive at the port of Marmary and after some problems with a rental car at the hotel entrance we Marmary we had already booked from Italy. The island is' almost as much as we do, little tourism, there will be 3 at most hotels and 6 / 7 a very homemade and typical restaurants which are all located on the "promenade".
Our hotel 'very simple and the window you can' enjoy a breathtaking sunset view port. With the language we had no problems because the owners are Greek-Italian, greek and his wife originally of Trentino has existed for many years but moved to Marmary.
Dinner of course could only be in one of these restaurants ... wonderful, delicious fish but especially abundant! The price was not in Italy and 'very low ... with a score of euro 2 people eat so much! Ah, very careful because 'for some dishes you even wait a few minutes, just long enough to catch the fish and cook ... when you say ... the fresh fish! :))

Evia

Officially begins our adventure. First we spent in a way to carry around water and something to eat. I repeat that some restaurants are only wretched kiosk in the harbor, beaches, coves in hard to find something to eat and drink, then best go with the escort ....
First stop in the town of Káristos located about 30 minutes to say Marmary be the second city in South Evia too many ships docking port from the mainland species from Rafina. Bouros continue for up to Kalamos Beach. Hence the attraction of water color and 'very strong indeed after a few minutes we are already' in the water to snorkel.
After a while 'relaxing style lizard do we stop and return to Marmary to Cressi Beach. A tongue of white sand surrounded by a turquoise sea! ... The roads are all paved, less-trafficked are thus completely pebble is why 'the wheel of the car was hard and "danced" all the time. Going to the north than we Marmary Beach Gold Beach and many farmed fish tanks. In the evening we return to the hotel at sunset and after dinner course of fish back to the hotel.

Recharge your batteries are off to new adventures. Obviously the first thing to do 'spending! Is part ... and we climb above the town of Marmary so that air and' already 'much more' cool ... we continue northward and after some ups and downs road - the road signs near most of the cities 'important but discreet exit as a bit' out now becoming scarce and not a little - we arrive at a sort of precipice, were it not that fantastic in this valley beneath our feet there was only water but also a small beach Aghios Dimitrios. Beautiful! Too bad that the road to get there and 'very tortuous and full of stones, we just some pictures certainly unforgettable. On the way back to the base still stray to the north and arrive in the port town of Nea Stretch, also point mooring of ships coming from Athens. Very pretty and characteristic of Lafia Beach and the beach. You can practically see from very high up on the main road linking the towns. So beautiful that we went by car to search. The area but found 'here the road was very twisty and full of stones, but we could not lose it on, so we parked the car and we went on foot ... a paradise, across the beach we were a couple and I and 4 Selene ... that peace, calm sea, snorkeling and sun ... hard to ask for more '. After a bit 'are also two small yachts arrive as if to say that the best way to reach certain beaches and' certainly by sea. On the way back to the hotel we saw a beautiful sunset and enjoy a good ice cream on a small island waterfront. How to stay on the island last night we moved and we went in the city 'of Karistos undoubtedly much more' bustling Marmary, witness the many outdoor restaurants can be found in the harbor area.

In the morning the alarm goes off early and we are now in the wonderful beach Zestani located not far from town.
The colors of the sea in this area are particularly beautiful jagged, and a last swim towards lunchtime after returning the luggage to the hotel we head to the port, riconsegnamo the car and climb into the boat ...

it returns to Athens!
