Which Greek island is Boris Johnson holidaying on and where are he and Carrie staying?

Boris Johnson and his wife Carrie have been spotted in Greece in the past few days, apparently on their second holiday in two weeks.

The pair were first sighted at Athens airport at the weekend, then in Nea Makri, a coastal town near Athens, a few hours away from Pelion where his father Stanley has a villa.

Now they have moved on to a Greek island, where locals spied them on the beach with children Wilf and Romy. Mr Johnson was described as looking “chilled”.

So where are Boris and Carrie Johnson whiling away a summer of Tory leadership contests and a spiralling cost of living crisis? Here’s everything we know.

Which Greek island is Boris holidaying on?

The Johnsons have chosen the under-the-radar island of Evia, or Euboea, for the beach portion of their holiday.

The second largest Greek island after Crete, Evia lies just to the northwest of the Attica Peninsula, where capital Athens is situated, and is joined to the mainland by a bridge to the island capital, Chalkida.

It’s just under two hours’ drive from Athens, making it an easy twin-centre stop for a city and beach holiday.

There is lots to see and do on this 3,684 km² island, including pine forest trails, crumbling monasteries, mountains and gorgeous, peaceful sand-and-pebble beaches.

The couple was spotted on Monday in the town of Karistos in the southern tip of the island, at the seaview restaurant The Aegean, which overlooks River Beach.

It’s unclear which town or beach the couple is staying in or near, but it is likely that they will have rented a private villa.

Yesterday they were pictured on a sleepy bay which residents told press was something of a local secret.

One Evia resident toldThe Sun: “I’ve no idea how Boris found that beach – even locals who have lived here for years don’t know it and his group were the only people there.

“It’s a lovely spot but there was no shade in the 34C heat so he couldn’t have stayed there for too long with his kids.

“They left as the sun went down in two people carriers parked on the dirt track leading to the beach.”

Evia also made the headlines this time last year, when it was hit by devastating wildfires. Thousands were forced to evacuate by sea as the blazes tore through over 50,000 hectares in the north of the island.
