With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to enjoy everything that Monemvasia, 40 miles away, has to offer. Monenvasia Kastro ought to be high up on your list here. Agia Sofia Church and Church of Christ in Chains are also not to be missed. Locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Kalamata, 40 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, make sure it’s Almyros Beach. (But we’d also highly recommend Mikri Mantinia Beach and Public Library of Kalamata.)
