Baths of Aphrodite

The Baths of Aphrodite are close to Polis and can be found on the road that leads to Latchi. There is a car par and across the road there is a restaurant which serves drinks and meals. The actual baths are about 100 metres away from the car park. If you are brave you can continue on the nature trail. Legend has it that Aphrodite used to bathe in this bath, she then went on to have several children with Adonis.
