Things to see and do with kids in Lesvos

Lesvos may not boast as many child-friendly attractions as some other Greek islands, but with stunning natural beauty, long beaches and lush green vegetation, children on holiday in Lesvos can enjoy the endless outdoor activities that abound here.

Head to Molivos or Petra for some donkey trekking through the mountains and views over the sparkling ocean, or for a really special sight, the Petrified Forest of Sigri near Eressos is one of the world's most important natural monuments and children will be amazed that the fossilized remains date back 15-million years.

On days when the weather is not good and outdoor activities for children are not an option, take the kids for a dip at the Eftalou Thermal Baths to warm up and 'let off some steam'. Many hotels offer kids clubs and these are great for kids to mingle and play with children of other nationalities.
