TOURISTIC INFRASTRUCTURE - EVENTS

The touristic development in North Evia has been rapid over the last decades. The naturally gifted regions of Northern Evia, are gradually following the touristic progress of Aedipsos, which has been since the antiquity.

Today, the entire Northern Evia (mostly its beaches) is ideal for the pleasure of its visitors.

A lot of high quality hotels, as well as sufficiently equipped complexes of rental rooms, are able to accommodate a great number of visitors, while all kinds of places which are serving food (taverns, sea-food taverns, snack-bars, restaurants etc) are doing their best to impress their frequenters.

Various institutions, (Municipalities, Associations of Hotel keepers, Cultural Associations etc) organize a lot of cultural events.

The naval Associations (like the ones of Oreoi and Limni) organize regatta and marine sports. Walks through the deep green woods of Telethrio and to the monasteries of Northern Evia, are organized very often.

Other information
North Evia
N. Evia consists of the municipalities of Kireas, Nileas, Elimnio, Artemisio, Istiea, Oreoi, Aedipsos and the community of Lichada.

The entire region is characterized of a glorious historical past and deposits of great civilizations. Oreos, Istiea, Aedipsos, Elimnio, Orovie, Kirinthos, Artemisio, Kineo etc. are names of ancient cities that had developed great cultural activity in all of the historical periods, and of areas associated with the mythology or with determinant moments of the Greek history.

The modern cultural image of N. Evia has been improved considerably under the influence of the Greek refuges of Asia Minor since 1922. Prokopi, Farakla, Kirinthos, N. Pirgos, Taxiarhis, Kastaniotissa, N. Sinassos, these are the most important refugee settlements of N. Evia and the starting point of the wave of progress which was the characteristic of the past century.
The ideal combination of the verdurous woody mountainous environment with the beaches of superlative beauty, is what makes the northern part of Evia different from the other touristic areas of Greece.

APPROACHES TO NORTH EVIA

Northern Evia, consists one of the most interesting and accessible regions of Greece, approachable in every way and for all the tourists.

The ferries of Aedipsos - Arkitsa (access at the 150th km of the highway Athens-Thessalonikh) and Agiokampos -Glifa (access at the 280th km of the highway Athens-Thessaloniki), make northern Evia a short destination for the Athenians, as well as for all residents of northern Greece.
A third ferry has been inaugurated in northern Evia, since 2004. It is the one joining the gorgeous beach of Lichada - Agios Georgios to Agios Konstantinos against it.

For those, who mostly come from Athens and southern Greece, it is preferable to arrive in N. Evia just by road, by crossing one of the two bridges of Euripus. Then they simply have to follow the picturesque route of Chalkida - Mantoudi - Limni - Aedipsos - Istiea (120 km).

The internal traffic road system of the area can be considered satisfactory for the needs of the seasonal visitor, who wishes to come acquainted with the secrets of N. Evia.

We also have to point out that, among the other advantages of N. Evia, lays the fact that it is adjacent to the islands of N. Sporades (Skiathos, Skopelos, Allonisos). The contact of our enchanting Aegean islands with the ports of N. Evia (Pefki, Oreoi, Aedipsos a.o.) is regular, especially over the summer.
