Piso Livadi is the third biggest harbor of the island. Taking into account the nearby beaches of Logaras and Punta, it represents a complete tourist destination, capable of providing a fulfilling vacation experience all by itself.
From small markets to supermarkets, restaurants, bars and even shops for last minute needs, Piso Livadi provides all that is required.
One can visit the small picturesque village of Marpissa, or the small monastery of Agios Antonions on top of the nearby old volcano, with a spectacular view of the whole area.
Finally the full moon rise from our balcony is unique.

The nearest beach, since Piso Livadi is a harbor and therefore not recommended.
This is a special beach with eastbound direction, suitable both when the wind blows from the usual north or from the south. Other features are the not so fine sand and the relatively deep water.
Beach bars are available. Only the first half of the beach has sandy seabed.
