Kaladi
Your choice of the island’s excellent beaches is essentially a matter of taste, but the particular mythology of Kaladi makes it especially worthwhile for a swim there.
Paleochora
Paleochora has an eerie quality with its ruins standing silently abandoned. It is a place that excites the imagination.
Paleopoli
Excursion to Skandia. In the area there are ruins of an ancient temple, thought to have been a place of worship of Ourania Aphrodite, but unmaintained as far as antiquarian sites go. Enjoy local favorites under the shade of the huge plane tree.
Traditional events & Festivals
Although most agree that September is the best time on the island, August is always the peak month. All seasons are suitable for Kythira, but the festivities are mainly in July and September.
Kapsali
Swim at Kapsali. For something different, you can take the boat to the islet Hytra (a.k.a. Avgo) opposite, with its colorful underwater cave.
Mylopotamos
Watermills, waterfalls, and dragonflies come together at Tsirigo; just follow the short path from Mylopotamos.
Agios Ioannis “en Krimno”
During your tour in the mainland, you may also visit the monastery Agios Ioannis en Krimno.
Karvounades
After clubbing till dawn, stop for a fresh tyropita (cheese pastry) at the village bakery. Check out the traditional paximadia (rusks) as well.
Tavernas
Apart from the many that are calibrated for tourists, give a chance to one of the mom and pop operations that will reward you with their family-style hospitality.
