Tour of the port in Molyvos
Walk through the romantic harbor
A tour of the port of Molyvos does not take much time, because it is quite small in size. Even so, it pays to go there for a tour. Not because of its own boats, of which there are not many, but beautiful views of the castle, or dinner in the tavern. Overall, this part of the city looks quite romantic, although especially in the evening very crowded.
Road to the port
It is ideal to go to the port on foot, although it is also possible to drive there. However, no one can guarantee that you will fit in the small car park. Alternatively, you won't have to back down a narrow street in front of a tourist train for a long time. The development in the port looks as if it was formerly a separate village.
Chapel at the entrance to the port
The entrance to the port is „guarded“ by a picturesque chapel.
Port restaurant
There are several restaurants right by the water, which burst at the seams especially in the evening.
Yachts in the port of Molyvos
Although the port is small, there are still a few yachts moored here. In combination with the surrounding hills quite a nice spectacle.
The port on the other side
As it is literally overcrowded at the beginning of the port, so only a few excursionists always move to its second, sightseeing part.
View of the castle in Molyvos
The view of the castle, the old town and the highest peaks of Lesbos in the background are really worth it!
Evening traffic
As soon as darkness falls, the local restaurants are completely crowded and finding a place can be a challenge.
Night view of the castle
However, romantics cross the restaurant and go again to the end of the port from where you can enjoy the lighted castle for a long time.
