The Gefyra Taverna Cafe - Anyone who has experienced the special atmosphere of the tavern once will gladly return. Separated only by a road, it is idyllically situated on the Megalopotamos, opposite the Turkish bridge. You sit under trees, there is no indoor dining area. The food is incredibly delicious, the prices absolutely reasonable. The waiters and waitresses are very friendly and helpful.

A bit crowded - tip: don't park at the top, but go to the next beach and walk over a small hill.

It really is like the Caribbean. Access is via a 200m deep, steep staircase. The beach has a heart-shaped rock formation like the "James Bond Rock" in Thailand. Behind the beach flows a wide, ice-cold, green mountain stream, which you can use to get into the gorge behind it. This is also possible via a "palm forest" path. At the end there are clear swimming pools and a small waterfall. There is a small tavern and plenty of shady areas to lie under palm trees. Definitely worth a visit, even when there are lots of visitors in summer.

The tavern is in a great location. You can sit in the shade of the big trees. The prices are on par with a tourist hotspot...
