Karavostasi
Karavostasi is inextricably linked with Plytra, since the two beautiful villages are just a breath away (2,2 km). Actually Karavostasi is situated opposite Plytra, in the small bay formed before the cape Xili. The beautiful traditional stone houses and the amazing view to the sea are the main reasons why this village is so popular especially in the summer.
It was named Karavostasi (something like ship-stop in Εnglish) because of the ships that berthed in its calm waters during the bad weather. Today the emerald waters of the village are ideal for endless swimming and exploratory dives on the wrecks of the region (some ships were not so lucky obviously). For the fans of exploration however there is also the prehistoric hill of Goulas (known as Kastellia) to the west of Karavostasi. On the top of the hill a plateau is formed with interspersed circular carving.
In the taverns and fish taverns of Karavostasi you will try fresh fish, delicious local specialties and local wine, while the hotels and the guest rooms of the area will offer you a dreamy stay.
