If you travel south from Fiskardo down the west coast, before you get to Myrtos Beach take the right hand turn following the signs for Assos and Assos castle. A series of hairpin bends takes you down the peninsular to the bottom where you will find the romantic village of Assos.
Almost as if it's been stuck in time, a village square with a few tavernas a small harbour with turquoise water lapping gently at the shore. Higgledy-piggledy houses all jostling for room around the waters edge. This is the place to come and while away the day and do nothing, except sample the local wine, nibble on the fish caught that morning and just soak up the tranquillity and peacefulness that is Assos.
