Why go
Kyparissi sits between steep mountain slopes and the Myrtoan Sea. Walk the village before heading to the shore: its setting and built fabric are as much a reason to visit as the beaches. The long approach makes arrival feel like the end of a journey.
Plan it from Agios Dimitrios
Allow an unhurried day from Agios Dimitrios, particularly if you plan to stop at Gerakas or Riechia. Check road conditions and avoid building the outing around a fixed drive time.
