The nearby village of Karavomylos is probably the most peaceful and beautiful place of the island, featuring an absolutely magnificent lake, with ducks and geese swimming beside the 'Old Mill'. The road connecting the two villages is amazing for walking about and let your self gaze at the stars during a late evening tour as you walk by the sea. The famous and 'must see' Mellisani Lake is a few meters above Karavomylos and is a jewel of nature.
