Nestled on the eastern shores of Evia, Kymi is a town surrounded by pine trees and verdant slopes. Aptly dubbed the "balcony of the Aegean", it commands breathtaking views of the sea from its elevated position, seamlessly blending the mountains with the coastline.
With its red-tiled roofs, picturesque houses, neoclassical mansions and narrow streets, Kymi exudes an air of elegance, a testament to its former glory as a commercial and maritime centre. Its natural environment is breathtaking: gorges, waterfalls, streams, hiking trails and secluded chapels combine to create a landscape of wild beauty, almost untouched by time. At the same time, the beaches in the area, with their distinctive turquoise waters, are among the most beautiful on Evia.
The port of Kymi remains a key meeting point and a connection to Skyros, as well as a vibrant hub of local life, combining a tranquil coastal ambiance with a distinct Aegean character. The local cuisine offers a delightful array of traditional pies and pasta dishes, complemented by exquisite wines and the renowned dried figs of Kymi, a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) product.
