In and Around Napflio
Palimidi fortress--- 999 steps up and it closes at 6:00 p.m.
Napflio Promenade to the right (from the city beach parking lot) around the point to Napflio and good eating—This is only about a mile on a paved walkway. The surface is paved with flagstones and you are by the sea the whole way. The Greek people use the pebble beach and it has a nice atmosphere. You can begin the promenade here by walking to your right. It is level grade
From the city beach parking lot, you can head to your left. The surface is a dirt road. It continues around the cliffs under Palamidi. It’s about 3 miles this direction to come to the beachfront tavernas on undeveloped Karathona Beach. Lots of Greek people enjoy this walk early and late in the day. If you come to this beach by car during the day, you can rent a lounge chair, sun and swim, and have your beer and calamari served to you on the beach.
Far end of Karathona beach—Beautiful at sunset. Drive the good road to Karathona but continue beyond Karathona. Lovers park here at sunset. On the left is a trail marked Pros Agia Konstantinos. It takes you on a coastal path for ten minutes to a little shrine church.
