You can travel to this hard-to-access region via Thessaloniki Airport or Kavala Airport.
The following briefly presented islands and sights represent a recommended selection that you should definitely visit on your luxury charter in the northeastern Aegean:
The island of Chios, which is close to the Turkish mainland coast, impresses with about 20 mastic villages. Here you will find the rare mastic trees that are cultivated for resin extraction and only thrive in the south of the island. Other highlights are the ruins of a Byzantine settlement (Anavatos), which you can find on the edge of a cliff and a collection of large and very well preserved villas in Kambos, which date back to the 19th and early 20th centuries. You can find some impressive mosaics in the Nea Moni Monastery (UNESCO World Heritage Site), which was founded in 1024 by the Byzantine emperor Constantine IX. Furthermore, 90 unspoiled beaches are also waiting for you in Chios, including the Mavra Volia beach section, which awaits its visitors with dark, volcanic pebbles.
On Lesvos, the third largest island in Greece, you will find defense towers from the 18th century. You can also discover a petrified forest.
If you want to enjoy modern beach life in the immediate vicinity of ancient ruins, you should make a stopover on the beach of Nas on the island of Ikaria on your luxury yacht charter. Here you can sunbathe in close proximity to the ruins of an ancient temple of Artemis and soak up this impressive backdrop.
