EKO - Valilis Evangelos Tsichlas Gikas

ΕΚΟ - ΒΑΛΗΛΗΣ ΕΥΑΓΓΕΛΟΣ ΤΣΙΧΛΑΣ ΓΚΙΚΑΣ

About

EKO is one of Greece's most recognised fuel station brands, and this locally operated branch near Skala Eresou serves as a reliable pit stop for travellers exploring the western reaches of Lesvos. Whether you are arriving from the winding road through the Petrified Forest or setting out toward the beaches of Skala Eresou, a full tank and a moment to stretch your legs here can make all the difference on the island's longer drives.

Beyond fuel, EKO stations in Greece typically offer convenience store provisions, motor oil, and basic vehicle supplies, making this a practical stop for self-drive visitors navigating the quieter western villages. The surrounding landscape of olive groves and volcanic hills is stunning but remote, so topping up before venturing further afield is always a sensible idea. For those road-tripping around Lesvos, knowing where reliable services are located is as valuable as any sightseeing tip.

Before you go

What to expect

A no-fuss fuel stop in the remote western stretch of Lesvos, this station sits near Skala Eresou where the landscape of olive groves and volcanic hills offers little else in the way of services. You can top up the tank, grab convenience store essentials, and stretch your legs before pushing on toward the beaches or back through the Petrified Forest.

Best time to visit

Open year-round; most valuable in summer when visitor traffic to Skala Eresou's beaches peaks and the gaps between fuel stops on the western roads become a real consideration.

How to get there

From Mytilene, drive west toward Kalloni then south-west toward Eressos — allow roughly one and a half to two hours for the full crossing. The station is near the village of Skala Eresou at the far western end of the island.
