Lichades

Lichades, also called Lichadonisia, is a small island complex off the northwest coast of Euboea in the North Euboean Gulf, opposite Cape Lichada and the town of Kamena Vourla in Central Greece. The seven islands are said to have formed after a huge earthquake in 426 BC caused the land between them to sink beneath the Euboean Sea. The largest island, Manolia, once had residents but is now uninhabited, though it retains a beach popular with summer visitors; the second largest, Strongyli, carries a lighthouse, and the remaining islands are Mikri Strongyli, Steno, Vagia, Vorias and Limani. As of 2011 the complex had no permanent population, and in Greek mythology the islands are said to take their name from Lichas, a servant of Hercules.
