Basically, you can make three walks from Tavari, either longer to the neighboring bays of Chrousos and Podaras on dusty roads or to a cliff at the western end of the bay. We will go here too. From the viewpoint there is a beautiful view not only of the port, the beach, but also far into the arid mountains in the southwest of Lesbos.

Original house in Tavari

Tavari is a small sleepy village where few tourists get lost outside of August. The beach is lined with a shaded promenade with several taverns. Occasionally you will see the original houses with a rich garden and a mountain ridge on the horizon in a gap on the edge. Thanks to the river, the surroundings are unusually green by local conditions.

The port of Tavari

If you want to go on a lookout and enjoy the wide views, head to the western end of the beach. There is also a small fishing port.

Panoramic view of Tavari

There is a bit of a useless roundabout at the port when there is nothing to do (from here you can take another longer walk to the neighboring bay of Chrousos / or drive there on gravel by car). increasing altitude is an increasingly beautiful view of the bay and the surrounding mountains, the ideal time is later in the afternoon

From the top, a view further west opens up to the massive cliffs and small bends below them.
