"The ruins can be reached after a 5 minutes walk from the Voidokoilia beach. The path is somewhat rough but doable even with for flipflops. The tomb itself is nothing spectacular, but it is freely accessible. What is amazing is the view from above, overlooking the beach."

"I visited the site on a beautiful hot July day. The view is spectacular and the site very well preserved and maintained. I would visit it on the same day as visiting the beautiful beach of
Vaidikilia"

"The small tomb might seem unremarkable at first glance, appearing as if it has been abandoned. Its weathered stones and overgrown surroundings give it an air of neglect. However, once you reach the top, you are rewarded with a breathtaking view that completely transforms your perspective. From this vantage point, the landscape unfolds in all its glory."
