Geocache Description:


MONI PANÀGIA AKROUDÍLA...

...is a monastery built in the 18th century - sanctified to the holy maiden of Akroudíla - is derelicted long ago. The baroque bell tower and the altar are still remaining. It's a very quite place that is not visited by many tourists.
As the monastery is located at the steep coast you'll have a great view to the isle of Paxós.

If you like shwimming or snorkeling in the sea but don't like the crowded beaches, then you should try "Akroudíla Beach" at the south end of Corfu (N 39 21.842 E 20 06.431).
