About Skala Eressos - presentation, information, photos and recommendations

Skala Eressos is perhaps the coolest most counter-cultural place in the Mediterranean and one of the most beautiful beach towns as well. The birthplace of the poetess Sapho, and a Mecca-in-waiting for International lesbians, it is also a popular family destination, not to mention a favorite place for honeymooners and a popular weekend beach destination for the islanders. Skala Eressos has one of the most dramatic beaches in all of Greece and a line of cafes and restaurants on the waterfront, some traditional fish tavernas and others alternative style bistro-cafes that serve exotic salads, pastas and lots of vegetarean dishes. Posters advertise shiatsu, yoga, various therapies and more than one restaurant in town is owned by followers of the former Baghwan Shree Rajneesh, now known as Osho. Skala Eressos may be the Sedona, Arizona of Greece and if you think you have seen the best of Greece by visiting Mykonos and Santorini, you may change your mind when you come here and find yourself in a setting almost as spectacular as the caldera, a beach longer, cleaner and more beautiful than anything on Mykonos, and restaurants that serve better food, for less money, than almost any of the popular Cyclades islands. With rooms in Skala Eressos going for as low as 25 euros for a double, backpackers, college students and budget travelers may want to ask themselves why they would pay three to thirty times more to be in Mykonos and Santorini.
