A path leads to a heart-shaped hole in the caldera, popular for sunset sea views.
Less famous than the Heart, this rock formation in the shape of a rabbit can be seen when descending the cliffs towards the thermal spring of Plaka.
Beach and thermal springs at the foot of the caldera, with supposedly healing properties. Baths existed from 1916 to 1980, but abandoned because of risk of landslides. Some of the abandoned spa buildings can still be seen, including 8 cottages in a row in which therapeutic baths existed. According to historic records, the bathing sessions lasted 45 minutes and baths were emptied and refilled for every guest.
