Volissos (Greek: Βολισσός) is the largest village in the northwest part of Chios, Aegean Islands, Greece.
In Christian Greek mythology, Volissos is famed as the birthplace of Saint Markella of Chios.
Over the years, enrolment has been declining noticeably as younger generations continue to leave for academic and economic opportunities in the mainland.
The village has a post-office, a pharmacy, a small doctor's surgery, a police station, a small museum, three mini-markets, four taverns, a butchery, a traditional bakery, several traditional cafeterias and two gas-stations located 4 km away on the road to Chios town.
This is largely due to better perceived economic opportunities existing in the main town of Chios (Chora) or on the mainland, in larger cities like Athens, as younger generations begin to stray away from the typical rural livelihood of the island.
