Antikyra, 37 kilometers away from Livadeia, is a picturesque coastal village of the Corinthian Gulf. The area was first inhabited during the ancient times and has kept its current name since the 9th century. In the modern history Antikyra became known for the activity of its people during the Greek Resistance period, who in 1943, together with the residents of Distomo and Steirio intercepted powerful German and Italian forces.
Nowadays, from the ancient city of Antikyra there are preserved some parts of the wall, of ancient houses and the cemetery of late antiquity. Moreover, there are ruins of the Temples of Athena and Artemis. The community attracts many visitors, especially during the summer period. The coasts and the beaches of the neighboring areas make Antikyra even more appealing- the most characteristic one is the beach of Agios Isidoros, awarded with a Blue Flag, for its extremely clear waters. You can also go swimming to Antikyra beach or to the beach of “Koutrou” port.
