In Atalanti, visitors can enjoy the clear waters of the Northern Euboean Gulf.
According to classical mythology, Atalanti was a virginal and austere figure resembling Artemis [Diana] who grew up in the woods and devoted all her life to hunting. She was the fastest of all mortals and nobody could beat her at running. The deer-huntress Artemis and Apollo were her patrons.
The Monastery of Agioi Anargyroi, the country chapel of St Seraphim, the Byzantine church of Hamethanasi, Agios Athanassios --the seat of the old Diocese, the fountains of Bodovatsa and the old Macedonian cemetery are the most important places to visit.
