Saint Georges & Archaelogical Site.
The picturesque church of Agios Georgios is located north of the Coral Bay developments
and on the Roman town on Cape Dhrepano.
It overlooks a modest fishing harbour whilst across the road,
a medieval chapel stands next to the entrance to an enormous sixth-century Byzantine basilica
complex with extensive panels of geometric and animal floor mosaics.
The animals depicted include an octopus, birds, fish, a turtle, crustacean and a snail.
Secluded swimming areas and beaches are found from the church by going south
along the dirt track to the curve in the road down to Moudhalis.
