Next comes the bay of Pantoukios.

A small village of cottages, mainly used in summer. 

Higher, over Pantoukios, is the municipal department of Sykiada, a small village, mainly inhabited by seamen's families, with both modern and older houses, some of the latter built of stone. 

The village derived its name from the many fig-trees (sykies), which grew abundantly in the area at sometime.

A
fter about 3 Km we come to the next village, Lagada. 

But a little before, on the way to the village, we see a deserted since 1949 small village, Kidiada

It was used by the members of the National Resistance during the German occupation, as a hiding place and the base for their numerous attacks. 

A monument has been erected there, in their honor.
