Greek Island of Lesbos | 03 Mar 2020
- Lésbos, also called Mitilíni, is a greek island.
- It is the largest island after Crete and Euboea in the Aegean Sea.
- The island is largely volcanic in the west, and numerous thermal springs indicate the unstable subterranean structure that has caused severe earthquakes throughout history.
- The irregular coast of Lésbos is penetrated by two narrow-mouthed bays, Géras (southeast) and the Gulf of Kallonís (southwest).
- The principal peak is Mount Lepethymnus (Áyios Ilías) which reaches 3,176 feet.
