Caves

ABOUT

It reaches a length of 200 metres.

The cave features a distinctively spacious entrance, measuring 10 metres wide and 4 metres high. It comprises four vaulted halls, each adorned with impressive decorations.The presence of giant stalagmites and stalactites within the cave contributes to a breath-taking and colourful spectacle, where the predominantly white rocks are highlighted by occasional blood-red accents in certain areas. 

The cave remains an active site where droplets form stalagmites and stalactites continuously, contributing to the dynamic and evolving nature of the cave's interior. Archaeological discoveries inside the cave have uncovered shells dating back to various periods, including the Minoan, Protogeometric, Geometric, and Roman eras.
