Squirrel's Guidebook to Milies and Pelio
Sightseeing
Dramatic scenery, interesting beach and a quaint seaside village, infamously featured in 'Mama Mia' to the delight and despair of locals. Tavern on the main beachfront is beautifully situated and rather good. You can wade upstream through the gorge, or take a proper walking path winding its way up Pelion - see walking-pelion.blogspot.com/

Parks & Nature
Potistika (Ποτιστικα / Ξυνοβρυση) beach is a rather gorgeous beach, peppered with dramatic rock formations, wide thick sand and crunchy Aegean waves. Best for playing with the waves, rather than swimming, but beautifully clear on windless days. You can also walk far along the consecutive coves, to less accessible parts of the beach where hardier folk than us pitch tents and party. There is a cute bar on the hill above, run by an enthusiast for obscure italian aperitivi!
