Avia is one of the most beautiful Municipalities in Greece. This is still the real Greece, small villages, local people and great times.

Where else can you find seaside resorts, long sandy beaches, traditional fishing ports and behind all of this the mountain villages and then the mountains themselves. This is ideal country for trekking , back packing, climbing and off road cycling.
