Andimachia
The village positioned right next to the airport. Here you'll find the only remaining working windmill on the island as well as a museum in the form of a Traditional House giving a real insight into the past everyday life of the local people. Built in Venetian times, this castle was the target of numerous attacks by the Turks during the times of The Knights of St.John. About a 3km walk from Kardamena there is now a path leading here.
Plaka Forest
Often called "The underground forest" due to its situation. A wooded forest which provides beautiful natural shade from the intense heat in the summer, an ideal place for a picnic and to see the resident peacocks here is something for the children to enjoy.
