You can't stay at Stoupa without visiting the Inner Mani. The contrasting scenery on the two different coastlines is very apparent and you will not find more interesting and varied scenery elsewhere. It has a strange and mysterious quality to it with many ancient churches and the old villages with their tower houses, built to defend themselves from the other feuding villages.
A lot of these houses are now being restored.

For more info and pictures, take a look at my East Mani page.

Directions: Extends from Itilon in the west to Ageranos in the east and as far south as you can go.

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
