We stumbled across this monastery on our way to the airport and so glad we did. The kids loved the small zoo and gardens and the views were fantastic. Sadly we were there when the monastery itself closes between 2 and 4 so only saw the buildings and courtyard from outside but even that was beautiful and peaceful. Will def return another time to visit the monastery properly. There are donation boxes all round the zoo for people to donate to help the monastery look after the animals.

A nice monastery, with the church, shop, zoo..... overlooking Lefkada on one side and the beach and the sea on the other. Worth stopping if you travel through Lefkada.

A beautiful place. An active monastery with Greek Orthodox monks on site. Attractive church open to visits. The various buildings are well maintained.
We saw the animals being fed in the zoo. And we played with several little frisky kittens.
A majestic view from its great height over the land and sea beyond.
Well worth a visit.

The children loved it! The little zoo is well maintained and the animals are well fed.
We saw several types of birds and parrots, turtles, geese, deers and squirrels.
We visited the monastery which is also very well maintained.
The entrance is free but we made a donation to the monastery to help them looking after the animals.
Large free parking area at the entrance.

Εγώ την επισκέφθηκα σε πρωινη ωρα ….δεν γνωρίζω αν είναι ολη την μερα ανοιχτά...όμως του καλοκαιρινούς μήνες οι μονες συνήθως είναι ανοικτές μέχρι την δυση του ηλιου….
