It’s a

tiny village,

without electricity,

uninhabited

for most

of the year

except during

the pick of the olives

during wintertime.

The pebble beach

and

the crystal like bay

are accessible

by a path-road

that runs through the gorge

and the

dry bed of a river

full

of wild oleanders.

the bay and the pebble beach of Agia Irini

Lovely the view

from his terraces

rich of olive groves and

Mediterranean plants;

 

not to be missed the fountain

of pure water

and

the small church

built inside

a cave. the path that leads to the bay of Agia Irini

 Agia Irini  is reachable in about 40 minutes drive from Xerocambos (better by jeep since from the fork of Hamedoulo the road has no asphalt and is in pretty bad condition).
