LAKONIA, MONEMVASSIA, VIES


Voies is a Municipal Unit in the Municipality of Monemvasia, with its seat in Neapoli, a town in the area where ancient Voies was located, with a history that begins in the second millennium BC. The Municipal Unit covers the southeastern part of Lakonia, down to Cape Maleas. It is a beautiful place, although relatively unknown, with picturesque villages, natural and cultural attractions, and many delightful solitary sandy beaches. The area of Vatika (another name for Voies) also has a well developed network of trails. The transitions between mountainous, semi-mountainous, and marine areas, as well as the relatively short distances between the villages and the many points of interest in the area, create an ideal hiking network for exploration.

Eight kilometers northwest of Neapoli, in Pounta, small ferryboats called slippers (pantofles) because of their shape depart for the 10-minute trip to the little island of Elafonisos.
