Voidokilia Bay

The Voidokilia Bay is worth seeing. It is exactly semicircular and closed by high rocks. From the bay you can go up a small mountain and enjoy the magnificent view from the top. It is one of the most beautiful places in Peloponnese. Wonderful beaches for swimming, secluded paths leading to an abandoned lonely castle, Paliokastro, are ideal for hikers, explorers and nature lovers.

Pylos

The small fishing village of Pylos, where tourism has long since arrived, is located in the southwest of the Peloponnese. The village nestles charmingly on a hillside and offers in many places a beautiful view over the historically important bay. In the immediate vicinity are beautiful beaches, the palace of Nestor and a ruined fortress of the Venetians.

Between Pylos and Kalamata there is a very interesting waterfall. Especially in summer, when it is very hot, you can cool off in the cold water! There you can find a change from the dried up landscape. Lush green, snakes, crabs and other animals can be found there.
