Avgonima

The medieval settlement of Avgonima is located in the center of the island built on a rocky hill close to a pine forest. The cube-shaped stone houses, narrow alleys and cobbled square are some of the features of this spectacular village. The view is breathtaking since the pine forest can be admired on one side and the Aegean Sea on the other. The breathtaking view of Avgonima offers amazingly romantic sunsets. Some of the most beautiful beaches of the island are within a short distance such as Elinta, Trahili and Giali. The churches of the village are St. George, St. Isidore and the church of Virgin Mary. The local celebration day is on November 3rd.
