Visiting Aspropountas Lighthouse<\/h2>\n

\"Aspropountas<\/p>\n

This old lighthouse dates back to 1919. It was built to notify seamen approaching the island. To do so, the islanders constructed it at an altitude of 58 meters above sea level. Its mechanism has changed a lot over the years and now it operates using solar power. It is located at Giofiri (Greek for Bridge). If you are wondering why it is called \u201cAspropountas\u201d, this is where it was supposed to be built. Although the location changed, the name didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

You may access Aspropountas Lighthouse by two ways. Livadaki Beach is about 15 minutes from the lighthouse. Ano Meria requires about an hour. Follow the hiking paths and you will see it. Upon reaching this landmark, you will be stunned by the views. Be sure to take some water with you, as there are no facilities on site.<\/p>\n
