b	basilis z on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ So beautiful place full of historical significance! Beach is also amazing! Do yourself a favor and walk the path down to the mosaics and lighthouse!

1	1066designs on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A mystical and enchanting place. It is the most southerly point in mainland Europe. However, the archaeological area around the rough ground car parking may be a disappointment to you as the significance of what you are seeing is not explained as it is at Mystras or Monemvasia. Also, it is quite a drive from most holiday resorts. Having written all this, I have travelled here many times. Not for the history but for the splendid isolation and the beautiful swimming beach, If you feel energetic, you can walk to the lighthouse. This will take 40 to 60 minutes. Make sure you take strong shoes, water and a hat. Remember you have to walk back. Whilst in the area, I would advise you to visit Porto Kagio on your way home. Fantastic swimming and you can park on the beach.

Google maps are useless. Car GPS is only good if you can figure out how to translate the Greek exactly as the GPS refers to the site. The other option is to type in the Greek, but again you have to figure out how the GPS lists it.

M	Murgu Adnana on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wonderful place, we really enjoyed it. You can swim in the clear water near the place, you can also visit the lighthouse and the Oracle. A 40 minutes walk, maybe an hour, till the lighthouse. The Oracle can be reached in 10 minutes. The small "beaches" are reached in 5 minutes, amazing colour of the water!
