Parks & Nature

Polilimnio Waterfalls are a series of small waterfalls and pools running through a small gorge, with the largest pool and waterfall at the top, where the water is deep. You can swim in the top pool and you may see local lads diving of the cliffs. The gorge is teeming with wildlife and is very picturesque, ideal for a hot day, the cold mountain water is cold but refreshing. It’s a very beautiful place.

Sightseeing

Ancient Messini .The remains of this vast ancient city are as extensive as those of Olympia and Epidavros, yet Ancient Messini receives only a fraction of their visitors. Picturesquely situated on a hillside below the village of Mavromati and still undergoing excavation, the site comprises a large theatre, an agora (marketplace), a vast Sanctuary of Asclepius and the most intact and impressive of all Ancient Greek stadiums.

Arts & Culture

The castle crowns a bluff overlooking the town. Much of it is occupied by the Timios Prodromos Convent, so a strict dress code applies. You can enter via the castle’s impressive Gothic entrance. The small promontory beyond the castle is a tranquil place for a stroll, with lovely views over the Messinian Gulf to the Taÿgetos Mountains.

Peroulia beach is located between the villages of Kobi and Vounaria, south of Koroni. It is sandy and crowded, with taverns, cafes and beach bars. I recommend Peroulia Tavern (good quality of food and reasonable prices).
