Best Hikes to View of Plakias Bay from Kakomouri Summit Cairn
Tips
From the top you have a beautiful view over the bay and the sea.
If you start from the beach or Plakias for about 45-60 minutes, you can experience a beautiful sunrise.
This is also possible for sunset, but after the sun has set, it gets dark very quickly and you have to hurry down with the descent.translated by

On the "top" of the Kakomouri you will find the piled stones, which you can see with the naked eye from Plakias and the long beach.From there you have a great view of the entire bay as well as the surrounding villages and the open sea.A blue dotted path leads around the cape, a red dotted path leads to the "summit". Due to the many sheep on the slope, the paths are sometimes lost, little cairns help with orientation.

Sharp-edged stones and thorny undergrowth make closed-toe shoes essential.
