This small picturesque port has had glorious times during the 19th century. It now offers shelter to small fishing boats and private yachts; big vessels could never dock and have never done so in the past, they only anchored in the bay, equally well protected from the elements of the nature, due to the land and seascape. Several restaurants, snack bars and cafes are lined along its docks. Just 18 kilometers (about 11 miles) from Delphi, it is a jem to be discovered!
