Molyvos is one of the most beautiful towns on Lesbos. Built on a hillside, it offers wide views over the sea, with narrow streets full of character. You’ll find traditional stone houses, flowering balconies, and little shops for a perfect touristy shopping session.
We came across a great local bakery where they serve warm, buttery croissants in the morning. The walk from the centre down to the harbor is one of the nicest parts of town, the sea is always in view, and along the way, you pass cozy terraces with simple chairs and tables set outside, ready for a good meal. Down at the harbor, the restaurants all come with a great view.
I think every moment of the day is nice to spend in Molyvos but I do recommend going there in the late afternoon.
