About

Exploring Lesvos at your own pace is one of the great pleasures of visiting this remarkably varied island, and having your own set of wheels makes all the difference. Lesvos Car Hire, conveniently located near the laid-back coastal village of Anaxos on the island's northwest shore, offers travellers the freedom to venture beyond the well-trodden paths and discover the quieter corners that make Lesvos so special. Whether you are chasing the petrified forest at Sigri, the thermal springs of Eftalou, or the labyrinthine lanes of Molyvos, a rental car transforms a good holiday into an exceptional one.

The northwest of Lesvos is particularly suited to independent exploration, with scenic coastal roads winding past olive groves, fishing harbours, and Byzantine watchtowers. Picking up a car locally saves the hassle of travelling to Mytilene and gets you out into the landscape almost immediately. For visitors staying along the Kalloni Gulf or the Molyvos coastline, this kind of conveniently situated hire service is a practical starting point for day trips in any direction — north to the dramatic volcanic coastline, east toward the island's productive salt pans and birdwatching lagoons, or south to Mytilene's lively waterfront and museums.

Before you go

What to expect

Picking up your rental here puts you in the northwest of the island already, within easy reach of Molyvos, Eftalou, and the road west to Sigri — you skip the round-trip to Mytilene and start driving into the landscape almost immediately. The Anaxos area is unhurried and low-key, a good mood-setter before the coastal roads open up around you.

Best time to visit

Open through the main tourist season from late spring into October; book ahead for July and August when demand across the island peaks.

How to get there

From Mytilene, follow the main road northwest toward Kalloni and Petra — the drive is roughly an hour. Anaxos is signposted just past Petra, close to the coast.
