Merichas Bay Merichas is a natural attraction located on the southeast side of the island. Merichas is surrounded by vertical rocks 150 meters high which are nailed to the sea or raised in the sky like supernatural beasts. It is surely an image that you will remember for a long time. Meanders and strange shapes, striking colors and rocks, as if nature put all its art on this hollow rock wall. Vultures make circular flights around the rock. It is an ideal place for any bird lover.
World War II Plane at Alimia The wreckage of a German Arado AR196 shipboard reconnaissance aircraft that sank during World War II can be seen close to the beach, at a depth of about 9m in Alimia bay, at Irakleia's southwestern tip. Visitors can dive, get a closer look and of course take pictures.
