Our day continues following an off road route around Kefalos and enjoy the best panoramic view of the island from above and we learn about local cultures and histories. We discover hidden routes, secluded bays and beaches, we admire wild vegetation and we enjoy the most scenic views of the Aegean Sea and the islands of Nisiros, Kalimnos, Giali and Astypalaia. Continuing our road trip to untouched by tourism areas we reach the Chapel of Agios Theologos with the unique secluded non organised sandy beach and the amazing crystal clear waters. A short stop for photos and relaxation in the area around will follow. After a route full of memories, adventures and unique non touristic places that only a 4x4 drive vehicle can approach we reach Limnionas Village for our lunch stop in a local tavern by the sea.
