Hello travellers!😁 I am Sara, your travel buddy to be! I am planning an unforgettable experience in the most unexplored island of Greece, Evia! Despite being the second largest island in Greece and the sixth largest in the Mediterranean, its wonderful white sand beaches, renowned monuments, delicious local food, and majestic mountains are yet to be explored. THE HIGHLIGHTS ✨ We are heading to the South side of the island, in the picturesque fishing village of Marmari. Here we will visit the world-renowned beach Megali Ammos (means Great Sand) with its unique strip sand formation in the middle. The beach attracts thousands of visitors every year and has been featured in National Geographic as the top destination for wind and kite surfers! In 15' drive we can reach the main town of South Evia, Karystos, with approximately 5000 inhabitants. We will hike the Mount Ochi and discover the ancient Dragon houses, we will admire Castello Rosso on top of the town, and we will enjoy traditional dishes in the sunset. We will explore the magnificent hidden beach Archampoli just as the reward after climbing the gorge that leads up to it. And these are only the highlights of our exciting trip! ** This trip was hold already once with great success. I am overly excited to do it once again!!
A LITTLE ABOUT ME 👧 I am an energetic person who loves meeting others and make them laugh. I am excited to show you around and I always have a plan or two. I created travel itineraries for family and friends and it came naturally, so one day I said wait a moment I wanna do this more and more! About the desination: a friend invited me for a spontaneous weekend in 2021 and I fell in love with the place on first sight. Since then, I visited many times, I invited friends and family to show them around, I even worked remotely from Marmari for a while. That is why, I am incredibly excited to share with you all the beautiful natural surroundings of South Evia! I imagine the trip as a combination of adventures in nature, chill moments at the beach, and a warm atmosphere between friends telling jokes and enjoying time together! Lastly: a local myth says that whoever comes to Marmari once, always comes back! Let's discover if it's true for you😉
