ALYKES
At a distance of 2km there is the
beach of Alykanas, where excavations
in the wider area of the settlement have
brought to light a domed tomb and vas-
es from the Mycenaean period. At the
promontory of Agia Kyriaki there is the
picturesque brach of the same name
with its fine sand, and immediately after-
wards, the famous and excellent Alykes.
Alyke’s beautiful and extensive beach
and shallow sea have classified it among
the best of the island. Behind the village
there are the salt lakes, which used to
form the base of the local economy.
