| The island of Euboea is separated from mainland Greece by a narrow strait called Evripos. "Evripos means "swift current" which aptly describes the strong currents in the strait which often reach speeds of almost 20 kilometers per hour. Typically, there are two high tides and two low tides per day. There are days when the current flows only one way or changes direction up to 14 times. The irregularity of the tides in the Evripos Strait is not fully explained.
