7. Sightseeing. We are now ready to discover the villages and settlements of Kos Island. The village complex of Asfendi must be in your stops in order to see the beauty of five traditional villages of Kos. The beautiful Cephalos might be 40 km from Kos Town but it is one of Kos most picturesque villages. Also stop at the abandoned Chaichoutes village with the evocative atmosphere. Visit also the villages of Pyli, Marmari and Antiocheia; all have some very special stories of everyday life in Kos to share with their visitors.

8. Nature. The natural setting of Kos is really beautiful. This blessed island has two major natural points of interest that you have to discover. The Cave of Aspri Petra (White Stone) where some important findings suggest that the island was inhabited long before the Geometrical Period. The second place with natural interest is the Psalidi area where the flora and fauna is protected and you can see flamingos and other birds as they stop here to rest before continuing their journey to the south.

Tip: Drive to Plaka, close to the airport, and walk around the beautiful forest where hundreds of peacocks reside!
