On the right side of the main beach of Paleokastritsa, a road leads to the world famous Monastery built on the top of a cliff in the most idyllic setting - renowned for its beauty and magnificent scenic outlook. Daily, summer or winter, visitors both local and foreigner come to enjoy the spectacular beauty of the scenery.
The beach consists of fine pebble and is famous for its clear water and striking blue-green colours. In fact it is one of a string of six spectacularly situated coves. Rocks provide great points for diving. Snorkelling in the clear waters is unsurprisingly a popular holiday activity.
