A
Local Walk
Around
150 metres from Villa Verde is our local beach
Two excellent fish tavernas are very
close.
Our
walk towards the harbour takes us past other small beaches …
…
and along a very pleasant promenade.
There
are a few café bars as we approach the harbour ...
...
and a small sandy beach
Beyond
the harbour a wide but quiet road provides plenty of parking space.
Another
promenade heads towards the sandier beaches.
Café
bars and restaurants face the sea.
The
road narrows …

…
then becomes a footpath heading towards the Brexiza Blue Flag beach and
eventually to the village of Marathon Beach a few kilometres away.
We're now around 1.7 km from Villa Verde.

Going
inland from the coast, the area has many trees and the mountains provide
a nice backdrop to the town.
The
main town square is around 1 km from Villa Verde.

It
has a few banana trees …
…
and is surrounded by a busy commercial district …
…
with an interesting range of shops.
Unfortunately
many shops are closing due to Greece's economic problems.
