You see the water falling from 20 meters high, shimmering and offering a unique spectacle. The waterfalls have created a small pond, where travelers are welcome to dive in for the ultimate invigorating experience. However, beware because the water might be freezing. Due to the special place that is not often touched by the sun rays, temperatures are often low and therefore swimming is only for those with great courage!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travel-zone-greece.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Kithira-Watermills-in-Neraida-Ravine-3-e1542391417374.jpg\" alt=\"Kithira watermills in Neraida ravine\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Around the waterfalls and in the wider area, you will also come across the watermills.

The one is that of Neraida, meaning Fairy in Greek. This name has been correlated with the dragonflies often found in the area. The other, less known, name is that of Fonissa. According to urban legend, two women fought on top of the waterfall. One of them fell in the water and so the other one was named \u201cThe Murderess\u201d. In Greek, this is Fonissa.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travel-zone-greece.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Kithira-Watermills-in-Neraida-Ravine-6-e1542392265311.jpg\" alt=\"Kithira watermills in Neraida ravine\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Discover the exquisite attractions of Kithira.
