Sigri is a very agreeable village in the far west of Lesbos, about 10km north of Skala Eressos. There are several tavernas and quite a lot of accommodation. It has a "town beach" at the southern side of the village, and while topless bathing is accepted at the end furthest from the village, this beach is only about 10ft deep from road to sea and therefore not really suitable from the naturist point of view.

However, on all other beaches around Sigri naturism is accepted and commonplace among locals and visitors. The beaches around Sigri are probably the best and most sandy ones on Lesbos and, generally, there is little habitation anywhere.

Several correspondents have recommended Roy Lawrance's booklet "Sigri - Where The Road Ends" (available from the gift shop) as worth buying. It gives a lot of background about the village and the beaches.

2002 July: A report says that Sigri, with its dry landscape and unspoiled character, is strongly reminiscent of the lost paradises of Paros and Antiparos of 20 years or so ago.

 2006 August: A report said "There was always a good cooling breeze whilst we were in Sigri. On a couple of days, this was strong and we needed shelter to avoid being sand-blasted!"
