Mytilene is situated on the south east coast of the island of Lesbos, and is the capital of the North Aegean Region. There are many ferry routes departing from the port, most of them crossing to neighbouring Greek Islands. Mytilene is the epitome of a port city; tourists and passengers hurry around the vibrant area surrounding the harbour, taking in the fresh sea air whilst browsing the souvenir shops. The port is somewhat of a focal point in the city, hosting several effortlessly cool bars and restaurants that attract a crowd from the first thing in the morning till nightfall. However, unlike many other port cities, life doesn’t stop at the harbour – Mytilene is famous for its thriving nightlife, offering tourists the chance to drink some local wine and dance till the early hours. For anyone looking for nonstop action then Mytilene is the place to go. Whilst Mytilene may have gained a reputation as a party city, there is a lot more on offer than the abundance of nightclubs. The city centre is rich in cultural landmarks, the most impressive being the stunning Gateluzzi Castle, an ancient castle that is surrounded by green hillside. For an extensive day of sightseeing, also make sure to witness the Church of Agios Therapon with its unique structure, and afterwards head to the Statue of Liberty which is conveniently located next to the port. Luckily for visitors travelling via ferry, there are two bus stations located at the harbour, one at the northern tip which runs to the urban areas and one in the southwest corner that runs into the city centre. Alternatively, there are taxis readily available and a couple of rental car companies operating around the city.
Limnos harbour lays in the city of Myrina and is widely regarded as one of the prettiest in Greece; it can be found to the west of the Greek mainland and to the north of the Aegean Sea. There are copious ferry routes from Limnos, nearly all of which head to other Greek Islands or to coastal resorts on the Greek mainland. The harbour is one of the busiest and most popular areas of the island, situated near a long street full completely of retail outlets. At the pier itself, the castle is found in the middle and separates the harbour into two; the southern side boasts harbour beach, whereas the north is filled with bars, clubs and young people creating an energetic vibe. Away from the buzzing nightlife and sandy beaches, there are natural landmarks to visit free of charge. The Petrified Forest is arguably the most highly regarded attraction in Limnos; the unusual sight of mass vegetation being destroyed by a volcanic eruption will forever remain in the memory bank. As well as the forest, the Waterfalls of Kaspaka are well worth a visit, especially in the spring months when there is still plenty of water. Many days can be spent leisurely exploring the area, perfect for those hoping for a relaxing holiday in stunning surroundings. Public transport isn’t Limnos’ best feature; the buses only leave two times a day from four destinations, and they are generally only used to take permanent residents to do their weekly shopping. The port is only a 20 minute walk from the town centre of Myrina, or there are taxis available should it be too hot to walk.
