Agios Thomas Introduction
The road from the village of Karavados down to Agios Thomas offers those who take it on foot one of those memorable Greek experiences – the opportunity to sit in a small paved square in the shade of the age-old plane trees, with the refreshing sound of water flowing into a nearby fountain. Just a short way further down is Agios Thomas, where a jutting rock divides the shore into two bays. One of these is sandy and can be quite busy, but a quieter beach is to be found a little further away. The other bay is rockier and forms natural pools like basins, while real sun-lovers will enjoy stretching out on the flat rocks.
This is a largely unspoiled area, backed by agricultural land, with olive groves and vineyards, pasture land and almond orchards. The villages are small and very traditional and a holiday here is an uncomplicated affair, with pleasant tavernas and bars and a perfectly relaxing atmosphere. Children will adore the shallow waters and sand and the chance to explore the rock pools.
