Among the charming seaside spots is Makarios Seafood Tavern at the Limani Mesogaias in Porto Rafti.
The freshest fish you will ever taste are among the items on the menu at this traditional seafood restaurant with a lovely view of the beautiful blue sea.

Specials of the day and seasonal dishes may also be on the menu, so ask the friendly staff for recommendations.
If there is room for dessert, and there may not be after sampling a variety of dishes from the menu, delicious sweets are also available, including panna cotta topped with cherry preserves or fresh seasonal fruits.
