Panagiouda

Panagiouda sits just north of Mytilini as a coastal settlement with a genuine everyday relationship to the sea, its modern growth shaped in part by the arrival of Asia Minor refugees after 1922 alongside older livelihoods in fishing, shipping and trade. It functions today as a practical, lived-in seaside extension of the capital — a place for a short waterside walk and a straightforward seafood lunch rather than a curated sight.

What to See and Do
