The pristine natural landscapes, the very few cars, the idyllic beaches where you can spend hours swimming and the peaceful and hospitable people are only some of Irakleia’s qualities. Take a walk through the alleys of Panagia, swim under the imposing rocks of Merihas, gaze upon the landscape from the top of Mountain Papas, explore the cave of Ai-Giannis and get a taste of all the local kinds of pure meat and of the fresh and cheap fish. If exploring is your thing, then you should walk over the entire island on foot. It won’t take you more than 3 hours!
