Beautiful beaches, impressive mountain ranges, peaceful hikes, lovely rooms on the coast, delicious food and incredibly friendly people await you in the small town of Lentas on the Libyan Sea.

The old port town lies in a small bay at the foot of the Asterousia Mountains. Due to its secluded location, Lentas is a very quiet place, free from traffic, and is particularly popular with independent travelers, backpackers, and families. There are no large hotel complexes in the village; accommodation is in small, private apartments.

There are about 12 restaurants serving authentic Greek cuisine, where you're welcome to choose your food directly from the cooking pot. At night, you can enjoy cocktails in the bars under an indescribably beautiful starry sky.
