With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to enjoy all that Kavala, 16 miles away, has to offer. Institute Mohamed Ali should be at the top of your list here. Archeological Museum of Kavala and Historical Ethnological Museum Kavala are awesome attractions too. The locals will also probably point you toward Xanthi, 40 miles away. If you can only see one attraction here, let it be Macedonian Tomb of Stavroupolis. (But we’re also big fans of Gyftokastro Mountain and Livaditis Waterfall.)
