Beautiful views of the coast

Our journey begins with the ancient monastery, located on the mountain. This monastery has been known since ancient times, it was founded in the XIII century.
The stone temple is decorated with frescos in Byzantine style and carving. Over the long years, he has been repeatedly pillaged and fired. Since 1986 there has been a women's monastery here. The sisters have cleaned it up and have been keeping it for decades.
It's very nice to be there, and what kind of views you can see from the mountain! Look!

A Greek cuisine restaurant is located 30 km from the monastery. That's where we'll have lunch in the shadow of the plane trees. A real oasis in the heat. The pies here are great. But the rest of the menu is nice, too. And for dessert, a ripe watermelon!

Very close to the cafe is the Monastery of St. Potapia. The stone vaults create and keep cool, what grace here! Clean air: the pines around and the sea breeze favour easy breathing. The view from the observation deck where the bell ringer is, is fantastic! The convent is small, cozy. Here you can buy souvenirs.

We go further along the coast and stop at the excavation site. There are archaeological excavations of the settlement of the fourth century. Wonderful view from this cape to the sea in all directions! Make sure we go down and take a swim.
Shake off the dust of the ages, so to speak. We'll even wash it off. Besides having a good swim here, you can also dive. Pleasure and research. In case you get under water an ancient amphora! Or do vintage coins shine? Well, that's lucky for someone. But even if you duck out without any historical finds, the bathing itself will give you great pleasure! Climbing back up the mountain will pump your muscles, and here you are, cheerful and ready to continue your journey.

We're going to the lighthouse! That's where I am, I can't get past the lighthouse. I'll be sure to stop by. How beautiful is the lighthouse here! Standing like this on the rocks, since the end of the XIX signal to passing ships. At first he worked on liquid fuel, and since the 70s of XX century he became electric. Whatever you say, the beacon is the link in time... And there was a beep in the old days, and now. And the rocks underneath it... Incredible view from the lighthouse! It's especially beautiful at sunset.

Well, it's dinnertime. And we'll go and eat after our swims today and our time outdoors.
Cozy restaurant, delicious home cuisine, well, where to be located, inside or outside, you decide. That's who loves it.

After a leisurely dinner in Greek, we also return to the hotel. And rest.
