Area Archeologica Eraclea Minoa

Set on a headland above the seaside village of Eraclea Minoa, the vestiges of this ancient Greek city are limited to the crumbling remains of a soft sandstone theatre - covered with a protective plastic roof – but the surrounding coastal scenery is gorgeous. Guarded by a few local cats, a compact and well-labelled museum showcasing archaeological finds completes the Eraclea Minoa experience.
