This charming village with its long stretch of sandy beach and river running into the sea, was until recent times a sleepy little fishing village in an out of the way place.

Green hills, goat-tracks, olive groves, herbs and wild flowers, the unique Lake of Kournas, Argiroupolis waterfalls, many small friendly villages and a superb beach combine to make this the holiday experience of a lifetime !
