MINOA RUINS
Site with an exceptional panorama on the bay of Katapola.
The Minoa site (Μινώα) is closed to the public as excavations continue. Despite this, we recommend you climb here for the exceptional panorama over Katapola Bay. You'll also catch a glimpse of some of the remains of one of the greatest centers of civilization in the Minoan period. It is said that King Minos of Crete established his summer residence here. Excavations have shown that the site was continuously inhabited from the 10th BC to the 4th century AD. The outer fortifications of the ancient acropolis can still be seen today.
