Everything you ever wanted to know about Euboea

Might as well make like Achilles and dip yourself head-to-heel in sunscreen—you're going to Euboea! A sizable island just off the coast of mainland Greece, Euboea features broad, sandy beaches, a mountainous interior, and more dining, culture, and entertainment than you could see in a dozen lifetimes. The capital city, Chalcis, boasts numerous museums and ancient historic sites, while the smaller municipalities around the island offer a glimpse at day-to-day life in a traditional Greek town. With a Euboea vacation rental, you'll be close to landmarks like the medieval Church of Saint Paraskevi and the ruined Bourtzi Castle.

Things to do

In with the old—Euboea's ancient history

After a long hike—or a long soak—you'll be all set to take in the many sights Euboea has to offer. At the Archaeological Museum of Chalkida, you can get a first-hand look at local history through artifacts from as far back as the paleolithic period, all in a charming neoclassical building. Or you can check out the Folklore Museum of Kimi, where you can learn about the myths, history, and culture of the island. The museum also has a garden amphitheatre where you can catch live music and other events.

Activities

Soaking up the sights, sun, and spas of Euboea

First things first, a visit to the beach is definitely in order. On the northeastern side of the island, the secluded Agia Anna Beach offers a pristine, sandy shoreline far from the hustle and bustle of city life. You can find a number of folks ready to supply you with kayaks or guided boat tours all over the island. For more adventurous visitors, the island's hilly interior offers plenty of hiking trails and scenic vistas. And once you're through, you can head to the northern town of Aidipsos, where you'll find countless spas offering thermal baths that date back to ancient times.

Ain't no mountain high enough—Euboea's geography
