ABOUT

Located in Viannos, a region known for its unique beauty and rich history, you'll find the lovely beach of Sidonia, also called Psari Forada. After your swim, stop by the Taverna-Café Koufogiannis, where they even offer free sunbeds for those who want to soak up the sun on the sandy shore.

This place is renowned for its home-cooked meals, and you absolutely must try the "Mama's dolmadakia" (stuffed vine leaves), made by the hands of the owner’s mother, Mrs. Kritsotakis. Regulars rave about the marinated anchovies and grilled sardines, and many also mention a distinctive coffee worth ordering after your meal!

If you're craving seafood, the shrimp spaghetti is a tasty choice, but meat lovers won’t be disappointed either. Especially on Sundays, when the taverna is bustling, they set up a spit roast, offering juicy meat for the true connoisseurs!

For a full experience, you can pair your meal with a visit to nearby Arvi, Tertsa, or Mirtos in Ierapetra.
