NEA AGCHIALOS (Small town) VOLOS
One of the major towns of the region. Anchialos means the city by
the sea. Its well known for its beautiful black sand beach, picturesque port,
pine-clad hill (the citadel of the ancient Pyrasos)
and archaeological remains.
There are sites of archaeological interest all around the town: the
remains of both secular buildings and early Christian churches with extremely
fine mosaics.
Near Nea Anchialos is situated one of the two airports of the region.
The tourist infrastructure (hotels, rented accommodation, transport, small conference
facilities) guarantees the visitor a pleasant, relaxing holiday. Picturesque seaside
sites like Kritharia, Marathos,
Agios Georgios Kinigon, Megali
Valanidia and Dimitriada
are ideal for short excursions to complement the cultural activities taking place
all year round and culminating in the wine festival at the end of July or beginning
of August, where free wine is offered by the Dimitra Agricultural Collective,
one of the biggest wine producers in Greece.
