The most Western land point or Greece. Amazing red dessert scenery and great for origano and salt picking! Tips: wear sneakers and don't forget to take a bag and a spoon with you!

A beautiful place that few people know of. One of the greatest spots to enjoy the sunset.

One of the most famous attractions of the Peninsula of Paliki is the Lighthouse of Gerogombos. It is a 13m high tower, standing on the edge of the homonymous bay. It was constructed by the British in 1807 and destroyed by German troops during their withdrawal from the island. It was rebuilt soon after, in 1947. The range of the lighthouse is 20miles. The view from there is magnificent. Not only does the endless Ionian sea and the view from the Peninsula lies before you, but also some of the most beautiful and historic places of the island can be found there. In that Cape, there once was a Temple dedicated to God Poseidon, whose mosaic floors can be found in the archaeological museum in Argostoli. There, it is mentioned by historical sources, that ships with a destination to the great Ports of the Mediterranean such as Sicily, Italy and Malta stopped at the lighthouse.

The old lighthouse is found at the south west of the Paliki peninsula. A wild, unique scenery area with the lighthouse overlooking the open sea. It's a must to visit with cautious driving as the road is quite bumpy.

Home to a scenic lighthouse and swimming location. One of the village's hidden delights.
