Description:
Ellinokamara Cave. The cave provided shelter to local
inhabitants during times of regular pirate raids. Its
entrance, measuring 30 m wide and 10 m high, has been
closed since antiquity with a wall built of equal-sized
stones ending at two openings. Further exploration has
yielded ceramic items dating to various epochs, including
the Mycenaean era. It appears that the cave was a place
of worship over a period spanning from the Mycenaean era
until the Hellenistic times. Located west of Agia Marina,
it overlooks the small valley of Paradisi dotted with
olive-trees and fields that reach down to the seashore.
Opposite the cave lies the tiny offshore islet of Armathia,
flanked by several other islets.
