Local Area
We are in a bird protected nature reserve which is an important resting and nesting area for numerous species of migratory birds between Europe and Africa. Birdwatching, in particular the Elanora Falcon is popular soaring amongst the cliffs of Gundari.
There are numerous restaurants in Chora and other parts of Folegandros that we recommend. Some of our favourites are Papalagi, superb seafood which enjoys a spectacular cliff edge location, Chic which is a pure farm to plate dining in a lovely atmospheric square.
Folegandros has a great selection of hole in the wall bars in a cute laneway, and nice wine bar in the main square that are all popular.
Gundari also offers all day bar and dining at Chochlidia Beach with its Bathers Beach house (which also offers private towel service to guests).
