Things to Do in Myrina

13th-century Venetian fortress on a rocky promontory overlooking the harbour and town. The walk up gives wide sea views and you can explore the battlements and interior.

🕐 Open 24 hours; interiors not lit after sunset

💡 Go late afternoon for the best light and quieter crowds. There’s no signposting inside, so wear sturdy shoes for the uneven stone.

Small but well-curated museum with finds from the island's ancient cities, including pottery, coins, and a collection of Hellenistic and Roman sculptures.

🕐 Daily 08:30–15:00; closed Mondays

💡 It’s free and rarely busy. Allow 30–40 minutes. The staff are knowledgeable if you ask questions.

19th-century stone church near the waterfront with an ornate iconostasis and a small courtyard. A quiet spot away from the promenade bustle.

🕐 Daily 09:00–13:00, 17:00–19:00

💡 Services are in Greek, but you can step inside outside service times. Dress respectfully (cover shoulders and knees).

Central pebble beach with clear water, right below the castle. You can swim, sunbathe, and watch fishing boats come in. No sunbeds or umbrellas, just a free public space.

🕐 Accessible always

💡 Best for a quick dip after sightseeing, not a full beach day. Bring water shoes as the pebbles get hot.

The seafront walk stretching from the harbour front to the base of the castle. Benches, tamarisk trees, and views across to the island of Aghios Efstratios. Popular for sunset strolls.

🕐 Open 24 hours

💡 Grab a coffee from a nearby kafeneio and sit on the low wall at the far end – you’ll see locals doing the same.
