Introducing Volos

Volos is a large and bustling city on the northern shores of the Pagasitikos Gulf. The waterfront area is dotted with shady trees and, though not a holiday destination in its own right, the lure of the Pelion Peninsula or the Sporades draws travellers to the city. The town has an inviting boardwalk lined with tavernas, ouzeries, small hotels, churches and cafés. The city is also home to the University of Thessaly, whose students liven up the Volos café scene.
