Weather and time permitting, we head to Stoupa and the beach of Kalogria with its fine golden sand and turquoise waters.

A route takes us from the settlement of Kokkinoghia and along the coast to a lighthouse. At Kokkinoghia there used to be a temple to God Poseidon, but it was converted by Christians into a church.

After 45 mins walking from Kokkinoghia, we end up the southern-most tip of mainland Greece. There we find a lighthouse. On the west of the lighthouse is a cave that Greek legend claims was the home of Hades, the god of the dead.
