Goupa (fishing village)

From Chorio, reach Goupa with a walk of about 20–30 minutes, or by a short local transfer if you prefer to limit the walking. Explore the small coastal settlement and the syrmata, the ancient boat shelters carved into the rock; allow 1–1.5 hours and about €0–5 for a stop, excluding any food or drinks.

Respect private spaces and do not enter the shelters; for the walk back, bring a light if you plan to stay until evening.

Check the road conditions, wind, and any services available on site before you set off.

Skiadi (the mushroom rock)

After the transfer to the trailhead, set out on foot to the distinctive rock formation: allow roughly 30–45 minutes each way, plus time to enjoy the scenery and return. The route can be exposed to the sun and the ground uneven; bring water, closed shoes, and allow about €0–5 for incidental expenses, excluding transport.

There is no ticket indicated for the hike; check trail conditions locally and do not go near unstable edges.

Aliki Beach

Get to Aliki with a short transfer from Chorio and spend the morning between the beach and the coastal scenery. Set aside about 2–3 hours; access is generally free, while breakfast or a drink may cost around €4–12 per person. If the sea is rough, assess conditions before going in.

Bring water and sunscreen; do not assume there will be facilities or natural shade.
