What to see on Artemis' island
Lakki, also known as Porto Lago, is one of the biggest natural harbours in Mediterranean. You will be impressed by the elegant buildings of fine Italian architecture, a reminder that Italians occupied Leros for 30 years. Just after your visit there, start looking for:
• The Temple of Artemis at Partheni. For many historians, Leros is the island of Artemis, the Greek goddess of hunting.
• The one-of-a-kind War Tunnel Museum in the area of Merikia. It was built during the Second World War and you can admire war exhibits like military cars and planes.
• The Monastery of Panagia Kastrou at Panteli, which is the major religion landmark of Leros and the fabulous castle right next to it. Bellenis Tower on the way to Alinda is another impressive building.

Adventure hunting in Leros
Leros is a famous diving destination with living shipwrecks lying close to the coasts. The shimmering beaches and the picturesque villages are waiting for you!
• Discover the underwater fields of Posidonia, also known as Neptune Grass, a flower plant of Mediterranean. The bombarded “Queen Olga” warship lies deep, close to the port of Lakki. If you love shipwreck sightseeing, search also for a barge and an Anti-Submarine ship in the bay of Partheni and the wreck of a large part of a German bomber in the bay of Blefouti.
• Swim at beaches with unique sceneries: Kokkino(in Greek, “red”) beach was named like this because it has red rocks. Climb the chess-like tower in Alinda to admire the longest beach of Leros.
• Go for trekking from Platanos village up to the Castle of Panteli to discover traces that history has left behind.
