Loutro is accessible by ferry, which visits many places on the south side of Crete, including Gavdos island.
Agia Ekaterina small church is about 5 minutes drive from the village of Anopoli (or Anopolis). There's no staff in the church but everything seems to be in perfect order.
Go there for marvelous views of the coast and some meditation.
Anopoli (or Anopolis) is marked as an ancient site on Anek Lines tourist map but there is not much there. At least we could not find a lot. Asking locals about sightseeing brought us on the hill here, where this small church is located.
It could be that unidentified rocks across the road from here are remains of an older settlement or city.
New Anopolis itself is a village not far from Hora Sfakion, accessible via a windy mountain road under construction (at the time the photo was taken). There are lots of wandering goats. |
