Here you have a great view of the pretty, sleepy coastal village of Lentas. You can also see the small rock bridge that juts out of the water on the coast. To find the way to the vantage point, you have to keep right at the entrance to the town towards the sea and hike up a small path. From here you can continue walking to Petrakis Beach.

Very relaxed village, isolated, but firmly in the hands of German individual travellers.
