What makes it stand out
Use the upper settlement for a walk and views, checking castle access separately. The lower town provides the practical side of the stay, while the wider coast introduces beaches and agricultural landscapes. Peristeria is a separate archaeological excursion for a longer visit, rather than another feature of the town itself.
Planning your visit
One night works as a touring break; two allow a local excursion. Check where accommodation sits relative to the upper and lower town, since the difference affects walking and driving. Coastal habitats in the wider bay require attention to current turtle-nesting and access guidance. Choose a specific beach responsibly rather than treating the entire western shore as an unrestricted driving or camping area.
