Neochori is a traditional village in the hills above Plomari, its name simply meaning “new village” within the area’s older mountain settlement pattern. Olive groves, fields and mountain roads define the setting, and the village works best as one stop on a slower route through the Plomari hinterland rather than a destination in its own right.

What to See and Do

  • olive groves and mountain roads typical of the Plomari hinterland
  • a quiet traditional square and everyday village life
