Tips from locals
The southwestern part of the island is Cape Lefkatas or cape Kera. At the edge of this cape, legend wants poet Sappho to put an end to her life because of her unfulfilled love for Phaona. The lighthouse located there has been built on an ancient temple dedicated to Apollo. Marvelous view and sunset!
During ancient times, here was built the temple of Apollo. This is the south most point of the island. It is a great drive to get there and you can easily bundle it with a trip to Porto Katsiki.
The most southern edge of the island. The place where the famous ancient Greek poetress Sapfo committed suicide.
