Pirate's Cave

It is also called Maniati's Cave because the pirate was from Mani. It is a small cave in the rocks where, according to tradition, the pirate slipped and was killed. This was considered to by the result of divine punishment, as the pirate had just looted the treasures from the church of Panagia Akathi.
