Hiking

Here you have a great view over the bay of Matala. One stands directly over the famous caves of Matala - a descent is however not possible. The way there is not excellent, but on the beaten track and with some sense of orientation still good to find.

Hiking

This is the promised surprising view of the hippie village of Matala. But when you visit, not much is left of the flair of that time. Commerce prevails. But some places are still worth a visit.

From Kommos Beach you have a very nice hike to here. The view of the bay of Matala is terrific.
