Some of the small beaches in this area can only be accessed by boat. Agios Sostis is a charming village surrounded by beautiful countryside and with a stunning backdrop of the mountains. It can be reached within 15-20 minutes from the villa. It was named after a 16th century church dedicated to Saint Sostis.
