Paleokastritsa Monastery
Daily 7am-1 pm & 3-8pm free, donations welcome.
On the rocky promontory above the beaches, the beautiful, whitewashed Paleokastritsa monastery (also known as the Theotokis monastery) is believed to have been established in the thirteenth century, though the current buildings date from the eighteenth. It is still home to seven monks the small monastery church has a number of impressive icons, including depictions of Saint George and the dragon and an atmospheric Last Judgement, while the ceiling features a woodcarving of the Tree of Life and a centerpiece painting of the Holy Trinity. The main panels of the iconostasis show a life size Christ, with SS Chrysostomos to the left and Spyridon to the right. On the same upper level there is also a museum (same hours), resplendent with further icons, most notably a beautiful Dormitiorr of the Virgin Mary, jewel-encrusted silver-bound Bibles and other impedimenta of Greek Orthodox ritual, as well as a curious "sea monster", with very large vertebrae and tusks, said to have been killed by fishermen in the nineteenth century.
The monks' humble cells and a wishing well - now accepting euros - complete the upper level. The cooler lower level, where a welcome breeze flows through the stone arches, contains an oil-press and the main monastery shop, selling homemade wine and oil, as well as books and the usual reproductions of icons and religious paraphernalia. The real highlight, however, are the beautiful paved gardens, a rich palate of bougainvillea, geraniums, marigolds and vines, affording spectacular views over the coastline. The oddest object, for a place of worship and reflection, is the jet-black cannon, ominously placed ten metres from the entrance

Boat Trips From Paleokastritsa
From the main Agios Spyridon beach, boat trips, usually €8-10 per person for half an hour, leave for a series of spectacular nooks and crannies on the surrounding bluffs, accessible only by sea. Principal among these beauty spots are the Blue Grottoes, a name much used for caves in the Ionians islands, and, most impressively, The Eye, where the sunlight shining through the hole in a partially submerged rock illuminates a patch of water below the surface so that it resembles an eye. The trip is worth taking as much as anything for the spectacular coastal views. The same group of boatmen also run a sea-taxi service to several neighbouring beaches, including Agia Trianda, Platakia, Alipa and sometimes Elli, right across the bay. Each is a pebbly cove filled with blue water, and served by beach bars and snack bars, either at sea level or on the slopes above.

Call in at El Greco souvenir shop (opposite to the Police Station) and see the owner George to purchase your lilo, beach towel, snorkel or t shirt for the beach, then stop at Zefiros snack bar for your morning coffee or breakfast and say ‘Hi’ to friendly owners Jonny and Rena, before heading off for a day on the beach or on the perfect excursion and beach BBQ on Paradise Beach. (See excursion page on this website for more details or email Lynn direct!)
