nice spot! - For you - you will have to know how this island works. To Vioglami is hospitable with close finds - 'locals' - while the successive one is found to share. To the island there is a long paddle, boat does not exist here, and no Bank found in Neapoli. In the summery months several spots offer fast ristorazione swells in the country of Peleponese but also wind from beaches work. To the country you will find nice Internet cafè, of the panificci, the supermarkets and miniums markets. There are also storees of sanitary interest with chairs and tables for all the length of the pescatorio port. For aim to the country you will not find of the stores with surf board, sweet traditional, all articles of manufacture but also with articles from gift in Athens. The region of the sea to Pavlopetri and Chamokelo is ideal in order to make surfing and kite surfing. Moreover Vioglami is a paradise of peach siccome in its waters can be found in abundance, the entire Aegean marine world delle mer!
