Hotels in Chios, Greece

Chios is a Greek island in the eastern Aegean Sea, famous for its mastic gum production and medieval hilltop villages like Mesta and Pyrgi. The climate is Mediterranean, with hot, dry summers (averaging 86°F / 30°C) perfect for swimming at Mavra Volia's black pebble beach, and mild, rainy winters (around 54°F / 12°C) when you can explore the Kampos region's citrus orchards and Byzantine churches without the crowds. In spring, join the local tradition of harvesting mastic from the Pistacia lentiscus trees, then taste the unique mastiha liqueur in the main town of Chios.
