In a Mani context, the caves at Pyrgos Dirou, just south of Areopolis, have been the main destination for day-trippers for many years now.

No visit to the Mani is complete without taking a trip into the Deep Mani to soak up its unique atmosphere. Handily, the road south can be followed as a loop, heading south on one side of the peninsula and then returning to Areopolis on the other.
