Chios is the fifth largest Greek island, situated in the northern Aegean Sea. The island is separated from Turkey by the Chios Strait. Chios is notable for its exports of mastic gum and its nickname is 'the Mastic Island'. Tourist attractions include its medieval villages and the 11th-century monastery of Nea Moni, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Administratively, the island forms a separate municipality within the Chios regional unit, which is part of the North Aegean region. The principal town of the island and seat of the municipality is Chios.Locals refer to Chios town as Chora (Χώρα literally means land or country, but usually refers to the capital or a settlement at the highest point of a Greek island).

The island was also the site of the Chios massacre, in which thousands of Greeks on the island were massacred, expelled, and enslaved by Ottoman troops during the Greek War of Independence in 1822.

Lithi Beach Chios: The wonderful beach of Lithi is located in a cove, west of Chios Town, on the western coast of the island. It has soft sand and mirror-like waters. The tiny seaside settlement behind the beach is famous for its excellent fresh fish and seafood, brought by the fishermen on a daily basis. The sunrise at Lithi is astonishing and truly memorable.
