Marmaro

 Marmaro is located in the north coast of Chios Island, 2 kilometers away from Kardamyla. The name of the village is caused by the white marble (in Greek: Mάρμαρο = "Marmaro") stone floors, which are in this area. It is a beautiful village with neoclassical and mansions buildings.

The windmills and the Statue of a Sailor give the port a special touch. It is also worth seeing because of the beautiful harbor where you can eat directly at the sea. Marmaro offers nice taverns with fresh fish and seafood and nice beaches like Nagos and Ziasona.

You can also sit at the great coast with a amazing view to the open sea and visit a chapel on a small mountain. There you can enjoy the view while you can sit in the shadow and eat something or relax. The inhabitants of Marmaro organize different cultural events during the summer months.

At the village square one can find the church St. Lukas, which was built in 1600. In the Town Hall the nautical relics exhibition is displayed.
The village counts as the home of the most important shipowner in Greece.
