Menies Beach

Menies is a beautiful secluded beach with pebbles and deep crystal blue waters. It is not affected by the winds blowing in the area and is ideal for isolation, far away from urban centers.

Menies is located on the site of ancient Diktynna. Diktynna was the most important temple of the goddess Vritomartis, which is believed to be goddess Artemis. Thousands worshippers used to come in the area from all over the island. Vritomartis was worshiped here during the Hellenistic and Roman times. There are still a few remains of the ancient Roman temple, but remains of the Hellenistic temple have not been found.
