Papanikolis Sea Cave

The Biggest sea cave in the world, an amazing swimming spot with a small beach inside the cave and crystal clear waters.

St. John church

Part of an old monastery, the Holy Temple of Saint John the Baptist, is built on a pebble beach west of the island. It no longer has great murals or architecture to display, but it has a long history since 1477. 

Cyclops's Cave

The cave of the Cyclops, in the bay of Kalopoulos, above the Spilia port and at a height of 50m. from the surface of the sea, is one of the three candidates for the confirmation of the well-known Homeric myth. The cave has been known since ancient times, while tradition states that it was used by Cyclops Polyphemus as a sheep shed.
