Advantages: Close to Athens airport and unknown paradise. Disadvantages: Discos and tourist facilities thin on the ground
I lived in Karystos for three years and still visit on a regular basis. I got a job there, teaching English, purely on spec. It was one of those accidents that prove you've done something good at some point in the past. I just wish I could remember what!
Karystos is a fishing town at the southernmost point of the island of Evvia. Evvia is actually the second biggest island in Greece, after Crete. This fact is relatively unknown, due to its being ... ...actually a bridge. It hugs the coast of Attica very close to Athens and is loosely classified as one of the Sporiades group of islands. It is also little known because it has no major resorts. At least none which are used by the major package tour companies. Except for Karystos.
Well not except for Karystos actually. A couple of tour companies tried to develop the town in the nineties but it turned out to be just too Greek for your average package ...
