The community of Fournoi, or the ‘little Paris’ of the prefecture, as it is considered by its almost 400 permanent residents, surprises the visitor with its island aspect and its colourful houses with well-tended gardens.
Fournoi is said to have taken its name from the second daughter of a mythical King Fourneas, who reigned in the coastal region.
The village of Fournοi is located very close to the gorge of Katafiki, the famous wildlife refuge of the prefecture, and an ideal contact point with nature for every visitor.
Moreover, during your excursion to the “island” Fournoi, do not miss to visit the very small settlement nearby, Lazes, but also Lampagianna beach.
