Agra Village
Snowy Agra
Agra is a lovely rural village perched on an imposing hill, 10 km from the sea in the southwest of Lesbos island. The village is surrounded by high pine trees. Agra is a quite village and does not attract many tourists. The inhabitants are mainly engaged in farming and have rich production of milk and dairy products. The trahana (tiny sour dough balls) is one of the local products. Other local products are the milk, feta and gruyere cheese.
Like most of the villages in Lesbos island, Agra has its own square, a place for villagers (old and young people) to gather, drink a greek coffee or an ouzo and discuss. Agra’s village has a huge tree aging many years.
If you stop to Agra visit the square, the church of Agios Dimitrios and the chapels of Saint George and Archangel.
Agra is on your way to the famous beaches of Mesotopos, Tavari and Chroussos if you come from Kalloni gulf.
