We visited this remote beach following the suggestion of a local friend and we were surprised by the beauty that can be generated from natural events. It must be the antic volcanic eruption that created some natural sculptures of a unique beauty that must be seen. The place is remote located nearby a wild beach but will definitely surprise you with its beauty. We visited this place early morning and the early sun light was adding to the natural colors and the quite impressive atmosphere. You have to visit this place when in Lemnos.

Oldest European city and harbor.Old as 5th millennium BC preceding Troy I.Surrounded by stone walls secured people inside.You can see streets public buildings,square houses, shops,wells proving that it was an organized society. Excavations show that it was abandoned after 2dn millenium BC probably due to fierce earthquakes.

Mark Warner Lemnos Resort & a beautiful Island, the people were so warm & welcoming, everywhere was pristine & well organised, the rooms were immaculate, the food delicious & plentiful, as was the wine too! The children’s facility’s outside were fantastic, One to one’s with children to make sure they understood the sailing etc. Very caring. We took a few trips out, a sunset cruise & went a few times into the town which had a pretty marina & the locals were so warm. We met so many lovely people, the beach had so many activities, the entertainment was great too, I shall be back again with my daughter next time & thank you.

One of the best and worth-visiting sightseeings in Limnos is its castle! It togs Myrina day and night and it's the main attraction of it. Easy to walk up its highest spot and have the best town photos of your trip! There is no entrance and if you visit it early in the morning and be lucky you may meet the famous Limnos' deer around!

One of the top sights of Lemnos is the roofless chapel Panagia Kakaviotissa in a cave in one of the wildest parts of the island around Mt. Kakavos. The easiest approach is by rented vehicle from the ring road around Myrina on a 2.5km long dirt road to a parking spot. From there a good path (1.3km, difference in altitude 110m) leads up to the chapel. In the first, steeper part are steps. The scenery is fantastic. My favorite way to visit Panagia Kakaviotissa is to include it in a longer hike, which lasts about 2 1/2h (breaks not included). Starting point is the Evgatia Beach Hotel by the road between Thanos and Kontias. From there one follows a dirt road with no traffic all the way to the previously mentioned parking spot. Already here one will appreciate the beautiful nature on this southwestern part of Lemnos. If one goes this way one has to be careful, since after 600m from the start there is branch off to the left. On the Terrain map of Lemnos it shows a path at the end of this dirt road leading directly up to Panagia Kakaviotissa. Forget about it. The path is difficult to find and very steep. Since it is open towards the west, the chapel is best visited in the evening hours for photography. All in all it is not so much a cultural sight, since the chapel itself is a rather modest construction. The whole visit here is mainly a nature experience with some great views. At the start of the track and again further up are shelters, which are good spots for a picnic. If one doesn't have a vehicle to pick one up at the parking lot on the way back, it means walking along the dirt road, crossing the ring road and going straight into Myrina.

An amazing British cemetery for the soldiers who died in Lemnos during WWI, following the Gallipoli campaign. Excellent job by the people who preserve it. Worth visiting, if one likes history. Free entrance.
